Download Trino JDBC Driver

Download the Trino JDBC driver, copy the JDBC URL into DbSchema, and start designing schemas with ER diagrams — free Community Edition.

About the Trino JDBC driver

A JDBC driver is a Java .jar library that lets applications connect to Trino. DbSchema uses JDBC to reverse engineer schemas, run SQL, and generate documentation. Driver files are usually published by the database vendor or an open-source project.

JDBC URL format

Host, port, database name, and SSL options are passed in a URL starting with jdbc:. Each Trino driver uses its own syntax — see the connection details below.

The Trino JDBC driver

Trino (formerly PrestoSQL) is a distributed SQL query engine designed for fast, interactive analytics across heterogeneous data sources. It federates queries across databases, object storage, and data lakehouse formats such as Hive, Iceberg, and Delta Lake through a catalog-based connector architecture. Trino is optimized for ad-hoc analytical queries at petabyte scale without requiring data movement.

The Trino JDBC URL

• Required File(s): trino-jdbc-xxx.jar
• Java Driver Class: io.trino.jdbc.TrinoDriver
• JDBC URL: jdbc:trino://{HOST}:{PORT}[/{DB}]
• Website: Trino

Trino coordinator listens on port 8080 by default. The JDBC URL can optionally specify a catalog and schema: jdbc:trino://coordinator:8080/hive/default. Authentication options include no-auth, basic (password), certificate, JWT, and Kerberos.

DbSchema and Trino

DbSchema connects to Trino using the Trino JDBC driver, discovering schemas from all configured Trino catalogs (Hive, Iceberg, Delta Lake, TPCH, and others), and enabling federated SQL authoring across multiple data sources through a single unified interface.
