It is a +Thrift-based client with no dependencies on ODBC or JDBC. It conforms to the +Python DB API 2.0 specification. + +This connector uses Arrow as the data-exchange format, and supports APIs (e.g. +fetchmany_arrow) to directly fetch Arrow tables. Arrow tables are wrapped in the +ArrowQueue class to provide a natural API to get several rows at a time. PyArrow +is required to enable this and use these APIs, you can install it via pip +install pyarrow or pip install databricks-sql-connector[pyarrow]. + +The connector includes built-in support for HTTP/HTTPS proxy servers with +multiple authentication methods including basic authentication and +Kerberos/Negotiate authentication. See docs/proxy.md and +examples/proxy_authentication.py for details. |
