Kyvos supports Oracle RDS as a source data connection for reading data from the Oracle RDS data warehouse.
Note
If using Oracle RDS, and upgrading from Kyvos 2022.3 to a later version, ensure that you remove the 'ojdbc8.jar' from the kyvos.connection.classpath.common.jar property. The property is displayed on the Connection screen when you click the Properties link and search for the kyvos.connection.classpath.common.jar property.
Prerequisites
Oracle RDS Server and Kyvos running in the same VPC
Once the Oracle RDS is created, navigate to the security group attached to Oracle RDS and add an inbound rule on port 1521 to connect RDS to kyvos instances.
Refer to the below image for adding an inbound rule.
Oracle RDS Server and Kyvos running in different VPC
Refer to the Amazon documentation to learn how to create a peering connection and accept the connection between the two VPC networks.
Perform the following steps for route tables of both the subnets (subnet of RDS and subnet of BI server of non-RDS Deployment)
Go to the subnet, and click on Route tables.
Click Edit routes.
Add route.
Provide CIDR range of other VPC in destination and peering connection in the target.
Save route tables.
After the entry in route tables, open the security group of Oracle DB RDS.
Add an inbound rule with Custom TCP on port 45421 for the IP of the BI server (BI server of the secondary deployment in which we will manually configure Oracle DB RDS).
Refer to the below screenshot
For every BI node, you need to add an inbound rule.
Note
To connect to RDS from the Kyvos Manager instance manually, use the same method but put the IP of Kyvos Manager.
