Download TarantoolDB JDBC Driver

What Is a JDBC Driver?

A JDBC driver is a Java library file (.jar) that enables Java applications — including DbSchema — to communicate with a database over a standard API. The driver translates generic JDBC calls into the network protocol understood by TarantoolDB, so you never have to write low-level socket code. Drivers are typically distributed by the database vendor or as open-source projects.

Understanding the JDBC URL

Every JDBC driver identifies the target database through a connection URL. The URL encodes the hostname, port, database name, and any driver-specific parameters as a single string. The exact syntax varies per driver — the details for TarantoolDB are listed in the section below.

TarantoolDB is an in-memory computing platform that combines a fast NoSQL database with a Lua application server, enabling sub-millisecond transactional workloads. It supports both key-value and relational data models, and includes a SQL interface for structured queries. Tarantool is widely used for caching, session storage, and high-frequency transaction processing.

TarantoolDB JDBC Driver Details

  • Required File(s): tarantool-jdbc-xxx.jar
  • Java Driver Class: org.tarantool.jdbc.SQLDriver
  • JDBC URL: jdbc:tarantool://{HOST}[:{PORT}]
  • Website: Tarantool

Tarantool uses port 3301 by default. The SQL interface must be enabled in Tarantool's configuration. Authentication uses a Tarantool username and password. The JDBC driver connects using the binary protocol.

DbSchema and TarantoolDB

DbSchema connects to TarantoolDB using the Tarantool JDBC driver, enabling visualization of Tarantool space schemas through the SQL interface, SQL query execution against in-memory data, and interactive data exploration for Tarantool-powered applications.

DbSchema Database Designer

Explore TarantoolDB Visually with DbSchema

Once the JDBC driver is configured, DbSchema connects to your TarantoolDB database and gives you a full graphical workbench — no command-line required. Available as a free Community Edition and a full-featured PRO Edition. No registration needed to get started.

Interactive ER Diagrams

Reverse-engineer your TarantoolDB schema into a drag-and-drop ER diagram. Arrange tables visually, add new columns, define foreign keys, and let DbSchema generate the DDL — all without writing SQL by hand.

Visual Query Builder

Compose TarantoolDB queries by clicking on tables and columns — no SQL knowledge required. Add joins, filters, groupings, and aggregations through a point-and-click interface, then copy the generated SQL or run it directly against the live database.

Relational Data Explorer

Browse TarantoolDB table data and follow foreign key relationships across tables in a single view. Edit cells inline, filter rows, and paginate through large datasets — all without leaving the explorer.

Schema Synchronization

Compare your TarantoolDB schema across development, staging, and production environments. DbSchema generates the exact ALTER statements needed to close the gap and lets you review every change before executing — reducing the risk of unintended schema drift.

SQL Editor

Write and execute TarantoolDB queries in the integrated SQL editor with schema-aware autocomplete, syntax highlighting, and instant result display. Run scripts, inspect execution plans, and export results to CSV or JSON from a single interface.
