Connect MATLAB to Databricks via JDBC

Use when establishing a JDBC connection from MATLAB to Databricks using Database Toolbox and the MATLAB Interface for Databricks package. This skill covers connection class selection, authentication configuration, driver setup, and connection optimization. Once connected, use standard Database Toolbox functions (sqlread, fetch, sqlwrite, execute) on the j.Connection object for data operations.

Prerequisites

• MATLAB Interface for Databricks package installed and on the MATLAB path
• Database Toolbox installed

When to Use

• Connecting MATLAB to a Databricks cluster via JDBC
• Connecting MATLAB to a Databricks SQL Warehouse via JDBC
• Configuring Databricks authentication (PAT, OauthU2M, OauthM2M)
• Setting up the Databricks JDBC driver (Simba or OSS)
• Creating a standalone JDBC connection without the full Databricks package
• Running MATLAB on a Databricks cluster and connecting back via JDBC
• Optimizing write performance for large data transfers to Databricks
