Connecting to the Optim sample database

Optim™ Designer provides wizards that make it easy for you to connect to databases and to display the status of your connections. In this exercise, you will connect to the Optim sample database.

You will use the sample database to define physical and logical data models upon which Optim processes are based.

To connect to the sample database:

  1. In the Data Source Explorer view, expand the Database Connections folder.
  2. Right-click the Optim Sample Database connection definition and select Connect.

The connection definition will display the database type, Derby, and open to display the Optim Sample database.
