## Documentation content

Structured data is highly organized and follows a strict schema or "blueprint". Examples of this include numeric, dates, strings, and boolean values.

**Connector vs. Driver**

Each data store connects to DataRobot through either a driver or a connector, and is indicated in the tables for supported unstructured and structured data stores.

| Type | Description | Recommended use |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Connector | DataRobot connects through the data store's native API using an integration built and maintained by DataRobot. The connection is defined by connection fields instead of a JDBC URL, supports authentication methods such as OAuth and service principals, and, for many data stores, supports unstructured data. Connectors require a registered data store. | Recommended when you want to configure connections and credentials once and reuse them. They are also the preferred option when credentials or other sensitive configuration are stored in DataRobot and should not be embedded in your code. Connectors are also recommended for all agentic workflows due to lower latency and unstructured data support. |
| Legacy JDBC Driver | DataRobot connects using the JDBC driver provided by the database vendor. The connection is defined by a JDBC URL and JDBC parameters, authenticates with basic credentials, and supports structured (tabular) data. For Self-Managed AI Platform installations, an administrator uploads and manages the driver files. Requires a registered data store. | Recommended only for custom connection types that are not supported by connectors or a DataRobot-managed JDBC driver. |
| DataRobot-managed JDBC driver | DataRobot ships and manages the driver set as part of the install (bundled in the browser-jdbc service). There are three main differences from the legacy driver: No data store required. Access is via the public /api/v2/jdbcPreviewQuery endpoint (and its write sibling /api/v2/jdbcExecuteUpdate); the caller passes the JDBC URL, credentials, and SQL directly. This is the lowest-latency path.No admin-uploaded drivers. We rely on a predefined, DataRobot-managed driver set.Any authentication the driver itself supports, not only basic credentials - creds and connection properties are passed as JDBC URL parameters.This driver currently supports Postgres, MySQL, SQL Server, BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, Trino, SAP Datasphere drivers. | Recommended when you are prepared to manage the connection configuration and credentials directly in the your code. |

The following table lists all data stores—both native connectors and JDBC drivers—supported by DataRobot for structured data ingest:
