Architecture

PI SQL Client JDBC is an implementation of the JDBC standard based on the JDBC API.

Communication from PI SQL Client JDBC to the PI System requires using PI SQL Data Access Server (RTQP Engine) to execute the queries. It provides secure network communication through HTTPS to PI SQL Client JDBC.

Note: For HTTPS connections, PI SQL Client JDBC supports Transport Layer Security (TLS), versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. The TLS version is negotiated with PI SQL DAS and depends on its version and the operating systems involved.

PI SQL Data Access Server (RTQP Engine) runs on Windows and PI SQL Client JDBC is supported on Windows and any operating system that supports Java 8 and up.
