file:///C|/Henry/BDUCourses/BD125EN_BigSQL/recordings/exercise1/video1/exercise1_video1_transcript.txt[11/6/2014 9:28:45 AM] In this lab exercise, you will be connecting to the IBM Big SQL Server and running SQL queries. IBM Big SQL is a component of The IBM InfoSphere BigInsights product. Before you can start working with your Hadoop data using Big SQL, you need to be able to connect to the Big SQL server. There are three different methods for doing so and you will get a chance to work with all three in this lab exercise. The first of the three methods that you will use is JSqsh. JSqsh is an open source CLI for JDBC applications such as Big SQL. That means that you can also use JSqsh for other JDBC applications. The second method is to use Eclipse. Users generally prefer using Eclipse because the results are formatted in a way that makes it easier for the user to understand. The third method is the BigInsights web console. It is a web based tool where you can run your queries and see your results. You will need to first start up BigInsights. There are two ways you can do this. Using commands in the terminal or the shortcut icon on the desktop. The lab exercise guide shows you how to use the commands. I will use the desktop shortcut. I’ll speed up the recording through the startup phase. Now that BigInsights has started, open up a new terminal. I am going to show you another way you can manage the Big SQL service. First, switch to the bigsql user. The password is bigsql. Then, change directory to the $BIGSQL_HOME/bin. From within that directory execute bigsql status to get the status of the Big SQL service. You’ll notice here that there is a Big SQL v1 instance. This current release of BigInsights comes with Big SQL and Big SQL v1, which is the older, legacy version. You would only really use v1 if you need support for HBase or if your applications requires specific v1 features that is not yet supported in the current release of Big SQL. To stop the Big SQL instance, type in bigsql stop. Check the status again to see that the services have stopped. Go ahead and restart Big SQL using bigsql start. Close the terminal. We are done with this section. Proceed to the next video to continue on with the lab exercise.
