Connect to SAP HANA, express edition using JDBC #257

Closed lnryan closed 6 years ago

Can you provide an example of how to provide the credentials through configuration or environment settings rather than hard-coding them in the code. Hard-coded credentials are generally considered bad-practice and only giving this kind of an example in tutorials does not provide a Production-ready alternative.

Thanks alot.

The aim of these tutorials is not to provide production-ready alternatives., Once again, this is not the proper forum for support.

There is plenty of SAP and non-SAP documentation on authentication methods depending on the language you will use to embed the JDBC connection and what your input and landscape look like.

@Lsubatin - Tutorials should generally model what could go to production and best practice or point to appropriate resources where they deviate. They certainly shouldn't provide sample code that directly deviates from best practices.

By the way, that has nothing to do with "support" - that has to do with providing responsible tutorials on the proper use of technologies.
