Configuring database connectivity in a parallel environment

You can use IBM® InfoSphere® Information Server to access many external data sources. You can access many data sources directly through the ODBC and JDBC support that is built into IBM InfoSphere DataStage®. However, for some data sources, you must install client libraries and include the path to these installed libraries in the library path environment variable. For more information, see the section about configuring access to data sources in the connector documentation.
