This page outlines the different ways to work with your Lakebase database instance and recommends how to optimize PostgreSQL queries.
Ways to access your Database
Here are the following methods to access your database instance to run PostgreSQL queries and manage identities. As a managed Postgres service, there are some limitations in functionality. See Postgres compatibility.
Before connecting to your database using an external editor or Azure Databricks notebooks, make sure you can authenticate to the database instance.
Note
To connect classic compute to PostgreSQL, open TCP port 5432 to 0.0.0.0/0 in your network security group.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| SQL editor | Connect to and query your database from the Databricks SQL editor. |
| Azure Databricks notebooks | Connect to and query from your database from Azure Databricks notebooks. |
| SQL clients | Connect to and query from your database from external tools such as psql, DBeaver, and pgAdmin. |
If you query through a Databricks SQL endpoint, the query is federated to a database instance.
