Refer to a case: jdbc:oceanbase://localhost:2883/test | | driver | String | Yes | - | The jdbc class name used to connect to the remote data source, should be `com.oceanbase.jdbc.Driver`. | | user | String | No | - | Connection instance user name | | password | String | No | - | Connection instance password | | compatible\_mode | String | Yes | - | The compatible mode of OceanBase, can be 'mysql' or 'oracle'. | | query | String | Yes | - | Query statement | | connection\_check\_timeout\_sec | Int | No | 30 | The time in seconds to wait for the database operation used to validate the connection to complete | | partition\_column | String | No | - | The column name for parallelism's partition, only support numeric type column and string type column. | | partition\_lower\_bound | BigDecimal | No | - | The partition\_column min value for scan, if not set Nexus will query database get min value. | | partition\_upper\_bound | BigDecimal | No | - | The partition\_column max value for scan, if not set Nexus will query database get max value. | | partition\_num | Int | No | job parallelism | The number of partition count, only support positive integer. Default value is job parallelism. | | fetch\_size | Int | No | 0 |

For queries that return a large number of objects, you can configure
the row fetch size used in the query to improve performance by
reducing the number database hits required to satisfy the selection criteria.
Zero means use jdbc default value.

| | properties | Map | No | - |

Additional connection configuration parameters,when properties and URL have the same parameters, the priority is determined by the
specific implementation of the driver. For example, in MySQL, properties take precedence over the URL.

| | common-options | | No | - | Source plugin common parameters, please refer to [Source Common Options](/data-integration-with-nexus/nexus-elements/connectors/source/source-common-options.md) for details | #### Tips[​](https://seatunnel.apache.org/docs/2.3.7/connector-v2/source/OceanBase#tips) > If partition\_column is not set, it will run in single concurrency, and if partition\_column is set, it will be executed in parallel according to the concurrency of tasks. ### Task Example[​](https://seatunnel.apache.org/docs/2.3.7/connector-v2/source/OceanBase#task-example) #### Simple:[​](https://seatunnel.apache.org/docs/2.3.7/connector-v2/source/OceanBase#simple) ``` env { parallelism = 2 job.mode = "BATCH" } source { Jdbc { driver = "com.oceanbase.jdbc.Driver" url = "jdbc:oceanbase://localhost:2883/test?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&rewriteBatchedStatements=true" user = "root" password = "" compatible_mode = "mysql" query = "select * from source" } } transform { # If you would like to get more information about how to configure Nexus and see full list of transform plugins, # please go to transform page } sink { Console {} } ``` #### Parallel:[​](https://seatunnel.apache.org/docs/2.3.7/connector-v2/source/OceanBase#parallel) > Read your query table in parallel with the shard field you configured and the shard data. You can do this if you want to read the whole table ``` env { parallelism = 10 job.mode = "BATCH" } source { Jdbc { driver = "com.oceanbase.jdbc.Driver" url = "jdbc:oceanbase://localhost:2883/test?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&rewriteBatchedStatements=true" user = "root" password = "" compatible_mode = "mysql" query = "select * from source" # Parallel sharding reads fields partition_column = "id" # Number of fragments partition_num = 10 } } sink { Console {} } ``` #### Parallel Boundary:[​](https://seatunnel.apache.org/docs/2.3.7/connector-v2/source/OceanBase#parallel-boundary) > It is more efficient to read your data source according to the upper and lower boundaries you configured ``` source { Jdbc { driver = "com.oceanbase.jdbc.Driver" url = "jdbc:oceanbase://localhost:2883/test?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&rewriteBatchedStatements=true" user = "root" password = "" compatible_mode = "mysql" query = "select * from source" partition_column = "id" partition_num = 10 # Read start boundary partition_lower_bound = 1 # Read end boundary partition_upper_bound = 500 } } ``` --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.selfuel.digital/data-integration-with-nexus/nexus-elements/connectors/source/oceanbase.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
