Connect TIBCO Spotfire to your data source with our ODBC connectors

TIBCO Spotfire is a business intelligence and data visualization software platform designed to help organizations analyze and visualize their data, gain insights, and make data-driven decisions. TIBCO Spotfire stands out for its user-friendly interface and versatility in connecting to various data sources, including databases, cloud services, and big data platforms. Its advanced analytics capabilities, such as predictive modeling and statistical analysis, enable users to extract valuable insights from their data. Devart provides ODBC connectors, facilitating seamless data access within TIBCO Spotfire from other sources, such as databases and cloud applications like MySQL, PostgreSQL, xBase, Oracle, SQLite, Salesforce, Mailchimp, and many, many more.

Key Features

Direct mode

Native connection to traditional databases and cloud-based services from TIBCO Spotfire using an ODBC driver. No need to use client software to establish a TIBCO Spotfire ODBC connection and fetch your sales figures table from databases such as Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, or cloud services such as Salesforce, QuickBooks, or Zoho CRM.

SQL data type mapping

Full support and mapping of data source-specific SQL data types to the standard ODBC data types. Access diverse data stores from TIBCO Spotfire through a unified interface with exceptional speed. You can create custom mappings between data source fields and ODBC data types.

Secure connection

Devart ODBC drivers use SSL / SSH and HTTPS tunneling to protect user data as it flows between a remote server and TIBCO Spotfire over the Internet. Tunneling allows you to send communications securely between machines.

ANSI SQL-92 standard support for cloud services

Devart ODBC drivers address one of the major challenges of retrieving data from email marketing, CRM, accounting, and other cloud applications into TIBCO Spotfire: their lack of adequate API support for SQL-92 standard SQL commands. Our drivers are designed to get the most out of cloud service APIs.

How to connect TIBCO Spotfire to ODBC data source and access data in 3 steps

Install the driver and configure an ODBC data source in the driver settings
01. Install the driver and configure an ODBC data source. Then, create an ODBC Data Source in TIBCO Spotfire. Next, in the Files and data flyout, click Other, and then select Load data with ODBC, OLE DB, or ADO.NET data provider. Then click Add > Database. In the Open Database dialog, click to select Odbc Data Provider.

ODBC Data Connectors

Fast and unified access to databases

We offer you optimal data access by means of ODBC and native database client libraries. However, you can avoid using client libraries, since our ODBC drivers are able to connect via the native protocol directly without using client software at all.
