The Progress® DataDirect® for JDBC™ for GitHub™ driver supports SQL read-only access for JDBC applications to GitHub. The driver provides access to data in GitHub Enterprise and GitHub Cloud, that can be pulled into a data visualization tool to get important insights into engineering operations. In addition, the driver employs a SQL engine component that provides support to SQL constructs to provide the most comprehensive SQL support and JDBC standard-based connectivity to BI and ETL tools. To support SQL access to GitHub services, the driver creates a relational map of the GitHub data model and translates SQL statements to GitHub REST API requests.

For an overview of the relational tables exposed by the driver and their corresponding API calls, see Introduction to the GitHub data model.

The documentation for the driver also includes the Progress DataDirect for JDBC Drivers Reference. The reference provides general reference information for all DataDirect drivers for JDBC, including content on troubleshooting, supported SQL escapes, and DataDirect tools.
