Summary

Integrating Monte Carlo with a database allows you to monitor your data assets through custom SQL monitors, which can be created in either the UI wizard and/or programmatically via monitors as code (API/SDK too).

These monitors can be used to generate notifications (incidents) to relevant stakeholders and circuit break pipelines.

Connection steps

To integrate with a database, you will need to do the following:

1. Enable network connectivity between the database and Monte Carlo's data collector.
   See detailed instructions here.
2. Create a read-only service account with the appropriate permissions on your database.
   See detailed instructions in dedicated database guides for Postgres and SQL Server.
3. Provide service account credentials to Monte Carlo.
