Connections for Data Mining

Oracle Data Mining takes place in an Oracle Database. All data mining objects including input tables and models reside in a database.

Before you start mining, you must specify a connect to an account in an Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.1) or Oracle 12c Release 1 (12.1) Database. The account that you connect to must have all grants required by Oracle Data Mining.

You must define at least one connection to indicate the account where workflow nodes execute.

Connections are listed in the Oracle SQL Developer Connections tab and in the Data Miner Navigator.

The following topics describe connections:

After you create a connection, you must define at least one project as described in Data Miner Projects.
