How to create a connection in Celigo to NetSuite Analytics Warehouse and Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse

NSAW uses Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) and stores your data in Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse (OADW) to create BI visualizations in OAC.

Here, we’ll create connections with NetSuite Analytics Warehouse and Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse using Celigo and Oracle Analytics Cloud. We’ll walk through obtaining Oracle SQL Developer, refreshing your credentials, and effectively handling connections. Learn to set up users, import data, and execute queries.

Introduction to Oracle SQL Developer

First, you’ll need Oracle SQL Developer. It’s crucial for the setup process, so head over to Google, find Oracle SQL Developer, and download the version suitable for your operating system.

Downloading the Cloud Wallet and resetting credentials

Once you’ve got Oracle SQL Developer ready, log into your NetSuite Analytics Warehouse instance.

Your next steps involve two crucial actions: downloading the cloud wallet from the “Warehouse” section and resetting your credentials, especially if you haven’t already set up admin credentials for your ADW instance.

These steps are fundamental for a secure and efficient connection setup.

Creating a connection in Oracle SQL Developer

With your cloud wallet downloaded and credentials updated, open Oracle SQL Developer to create a new connection to your Oracle ADW instance. This involves naming your connection, inputting the admin username, and the password you’ve reset or already have.

Remember to link the cloud wallet by browsing for the downloaded zip file, and selecting your service level—high, low, or medium, (though high is generally recommended for optimal connectivity).

Configuring a specialized user for Celigo

Next, we focus on creating a user specifically for use within Celigo. This user should have the necessary permissions to create and consume tables in the ADW instance without having broad administrative rights. Set up a username and password for this user directly in SQL Developer, ensuring a secure yet flexible environment for your data operations.

Setting up the connection in Celigo

Shifting gears to Celigo, navigate to the resources section, then to connections, to initiate a new connection setup. Choose Oracle Autonomous Database as the connection type, name your connection, and select Cloud Wallet as the authentication method.

Here, you’ll input the username and password for the user you previously created, attach the cloud wallet file, and choose your service name, opting for ‘high’ for the service level.

Integrating OAC with ADW

To fully leverage your data, it is crucial that OAC can also access your ADW instance. Within the OAC console, navigate to create a new connection to Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse using the credentials and cloud wallet file established in Celigo.

This enables a seamless flow of data for analytics and visualization.

Creating data visualizations

With the connections securely in place in both Celigo and OAC, you’re now prepared to create data flows in Celigo to populate your ADW instance with valuable information. Subsequently, you can utilize OAC to extract this data, crafting datasets and visualizations to glean insights and drive informed decisions.

You’ve now equipped yourself to leverage the full potential of NetSuite Analytics Warehouse and Oracle ADW, enhancing your data management and visualization capabilities.

NetSuite Analytics Warehouse is a pivotal innovation for businesses leveraging Oracle NetSuite ERP, transforming raw data into actionable insights with ease and efficiency. Aggregating data from diverse sources enables deep analytical insights across various business functions. From enhancing customer experiences to optimizing supply chains and beyond, NetSuite Analytics Warehouse equips businesses with the tools needed for strategic decision-making and sustainable growth.
