The database is accessed through sqlalchemy

Can the Dameng database be connected to Superset through sqlalchemy? If so, how should it be connected?

Superset can connect to any database via SQLAlchemy as long as there is a compatible Python DB-API driver and SQLAlchemy dialect for that database. Dameng is not listed among the officially supported databases, and there is no native Dameng engine spec in Superset, but if you have a working SQLAlchemy dialect for Dameng installed, you can connect it just like any other database by providing the correct connection string in Superset’s UI or configuration. The connection string format typically follows: engine+driver://username:password@host:port/database (replace engine+driver with the Dameng dialect name) docs.

If no SQLAlchemy dialect exists for Dameng, Superset cannot connect until one is available. If you do have a dialect, install it in your Superset environment, then configure the connection in Superset using the dialect’s connection string format docs. No additional Superset configuration is required beyond what is needed for any other SQLAlchemy-supported database.

To reply, just mention @dosu.
