SQLAlchemy Dialect for EXASOL DB

Getting Started with SQLAlchemy-Exasol

SQLAlchemy-Exasol supports multiple dialects, primarily differentiated by whether they are ODBC or Websocket-based.

Choosing a Dialect

We recommend using the Websocket-based dialect due to its simplicity. ODBC-based dialects demand a thorough understanding of (Unix)ODBC, and the setup is considerably more complex.

Warning

The maintenance of Turbodbc & pyodbc support is currently paused, and it is planned to be phased out in future versions.

System Requirements

• Exasol >= 7.1 (e.g. docker-db or a cloud instance)
• Python >= 3.10

Note

For ODBC-Based Dialects, additional libraries required for ODBC are necessary (for further details, checkout the developer guide).

Features

• SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE statements
