Problem:

Spotfire Analyst is going offline/freezes while adding second data table from MongoDB ODBC DSN.

Solution:

To connect to MongoDB database, TIBCO MongoDB ODBC driver can be used.

If there is only one data table from MongoDB ODBC DSN data source then everything works fine but as soon as you add another(second) data table from MongoDB ODBC DSN connection then TIBCO Spotfire Analyst freezes.

This issue has been fixed in TIBCO MongoDB ODBC Driver 1.3 or later versions.

You can download the driver from our software download site: https://perkinelmerinformatics.flexnetoperations.com.

Note: TIBCO Spotfire 10.3.x and above version(s) has dedicated 'MongoDB Connector For BI' option to connect 'MongoDB' from Oracle MySQL Connector. https://docs.tibco.com/pub/spotfire/general/sr/GUID-0E4DC24F-8D6A-4C1B-8544-5DE9D503B76E.html
