5.1 Connecting from the Console

Connecting to a DB System from the HeatWave Console requires a Oracle Cloud Account user name and password for signing into the HeatWave Console, and a MySQL user account for connecting to the DB System.

Use the MySQL Administrator user specified when creating the DB System, see Creating a DB System, or use a MySQL user account created on the DB System using CREATE USER . Otherwise, ask the MySQL Administrator to create an account.

Use the Workspaces page to connect to a DB System, and then manage HeatWave Cluster data and use the Query Editor to run DB System and HeatWave queries. For more information, see Manage Data in HeatWave with Workspaces, and Running Queries.

To connect to a DB System from the HeatWave Console:

  1. Sign-in to the HeatWave Console. For instructions, see Signing In.

  2. Select the Workspaces tab in the HeatWave Console, and then click Connect to MySQL DB System.

  3. Select a DB System from the drop-down menu.

  4. Enter a MySQL user name and password for the DB System.

  5. Click Connect.
