Installing the Hybrid Data Pipeline On-Premises Connector

The Hybrid Data Pipeline On-Premises Connector can be used to access on-premises data stores behind separate firewalls on different networks without having to set up a VPN or other gateway.

To provide access to on-premises data stores, the On-Premises Connector must be installed on a Windows machine behind the firewall where the on-premises data stores are located. When data stores exist at multiple on-premise locations, multiple On-Premises Connectors can be installed and configured to enable access to data stores at each on-premise location.

During installation of the On-Premises Connector, a Hybrid Data Pipeline user ID and password must be provided. The Hybrid Data Pipeline On-Premises Connector uses these credentials to register the On-Premises Connector with Hybrid Data Pipeline.

A valid Hybrid Data Pipeline account must be used to access data stores with the On-Premises Connector. Data stores exposed by the On-Premises Connector are accessed, like any other type of Hybrid Data Pipeline data store, by creating a Hybrid Data Pipeline data source.
