A guide for connecting Exasol to external databases through JDBC virtual schemas, which let Exasol query outside data without copying it in.

In plain words
What is it for?
Selecting a JDBC adapter, creating virtual schemas, refreshing metadata, checking query plans, and diagnosing pushdown or connection issues.
Why use it?
It explains how to create, inspect, refresh, and troubleshoot read-only federated connections.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

exasol-jdbc-virtual-schemas scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Exasol JDBC Virtual Schemas Skill

Use this skill only for JDBC or database-source virtual schemas where Exasol queries external data in place.

Trigger when the user mentions JDBC virtual schema, database-source federation, query external database through a virtual schema, JDBC source adapter, supported JDBC dialect, or EXPLAIN VIRTUAL together with a JDBC/database-source virtual schema context.

Routing Algorithm

  1. Create or query a JDBC virtual schema

    • Trigger phrases: JDBC virtual schema, query external database, database-source virtual schema, JDBC source adapter
    • Load: references/jdbc-virtual-schemas.md
  2. Refresh, explain, or troubleshoot a JDBC virtual schema

    • Trigger phrases: EXPLAIN VIRTUAL with JDBC context, ALTER VIRTUAL SCHEMA with JDBC context, REFRESH TABLES, partial refresh, connection validation, pushdown
    • Load: references/jdbc-virtual-schemas.md
  3. Choose a JDBC adapter family

    • Trigger phrases: supported JDBC dialect, dedicated adapter, PostgreSQL virtual schema, Oracle virtual schema, SQL Server virtual schema, MySQL virtual schema, DB2 virtual schema
    • Load: references/jdbc-virtual-schemas.md

Notes

  • Use this skill for federated access through JDBC/database-source virtual schemas.
  • Use exasol-import or exasol-cloud-storage-extension when the user wants to efficiently bulk-copy data into Exasol instead of querying it in place.
  • Use exasol-export when the user wants to move Exasol data out to another system.
  • Use exasol-virtual-schema-adapter-development when no maintained JDBC dialect fits and the user needs custom dialect code, packaging, or adapter-side debugging.
  • Use exasol-extension-catalog when the source is not clearly JDBC/database-based or the user is still choosing between Virtual Schema, extension, connector, or integration families.
  • Use exasol-bucketfs when the task is specifically about uploading, listing, or removing adapter and driver JARs in BucketFS.
