Getting Started with Amazon S3 JDBC Driver

Working with the new Amazon S3 JDBC Driver is easy. As a 100% pure Java JDBC Driver, the Amazon S3 Driver integrates seamlessly with popular IDEs like Eclipse, IntelliJ and NetBeans, as well as any Java/J2EE application.

Eclipse Integration - Data Explorer

As a JDBC Driver, Amazon S3 JDBC Driver can be used to access and explore Amazon S3 data directly from the Data Source Explorers included in popular java IDEs.

Enterprise-Class Remoting

MySQL/SQL Database entry points for Amazon S3 Data

The CData JDBC drivers include powerful fully-integrated remoting capabilities that makes Amazon S3 data accessible from virtually anywhere. The drivers include the optional ability to accept incoming SQL and MySQL client connections and service standard database requests.

With the CData JDBC drivers, users can interact with Amazon S3 data from any client that supports SQL Server or MySQL: from web & mobile applications, to CRM and CMS systems, BI tools like SQL Server Analysis Services, and even through popular management applications like MySQL Workbench.

• Access Amazon S3 data from virtually any application that can access external data. Applications that can access SQL Server or MySQL data can now connect to Amazon S3 with this driver.
• Connect Amazon S3 data with popular BI tools like SQL Server Analysis Services.
• Enable enterprise Amazon S3 data integration through SQL Linked Server connectivity
• Includes support for the MySQL and SQL (TDS) remote access protocols - industry standards for remote database connectivity.
• Offers advanced wire-protocol SSL security for remote connectivity

Enterprise-class JDBC Connectivity

The Amazon S3 JDBC Driver offers the most natural way to access Amazon S3 data from any Java/J2EE application. Simply use the Amazon S3 Driver to connect and access data just as you would access any traditional database. The driver is completely self-contained - no additional software installation is required!

Amazon S3 Integration

The Amazon S3 Driver has the same JDBC architecture as the JDBC drivers for MySQL and OLEDB, including Connection, Statement and ResultSet objects. Because of this you can now access Amazon S3 data in an easy, familiar way. You can use the Amazon S3 Driver through popular IDEs (Eclipse, IntelliJ, NetBeans, etc.), in code through familiar classes, and in data controls available through Swing, Eclipse SWT Widgets, etc.

For example:

Connection conn =
	DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:amazons3:user=myuseraccount;password=mypassword;");

boolean ret = stat.execute("SELECT * FROM Buckets");
ResultSet rs=stat.getResultSet();
while(rs.next()){
  for(int i=1;i<=rs.getMetaData().getColumnCount();i++)
  {
    System.out.println(rs.getMetaData().getColumnName(i) +"="+rs.getString(i));
  }
}
