Google BigQuery Installation

Introduction

This document includes the installation steps for Google BigQuery.

Install Gluent Data Platform

If the Gluent Node was not provisioned from a Google Cloud Platform Marketplace image then Gluent Data Platform software must be installed as follows.

Unpack the install tarball (gluent_offload_<version>.tar.bz2):

Note

When unpacking, an offload directory will be created if it does not exist. The offload directory is referred to as <OFFLOAD_HOME> and an environment variable ($OFFLOAD_HOME) will be set when offload.env is sourced.

$ cd <Gluent Data Platform Base Directory>
$ tar xpf <Gluent Data Platform Installation Media Directory>/gluent_offload_<version>.tar.bz2

It is recommended that the <Gluent Data Platform Base Directory> in which the offload directory should be created is /opt/gluent.

Google Cloud Storage Configuration

If the Gluent Node was not provisioned from a Google Cloud Platform Marketplace image then copy the Google Service Account private key JSON file to /opt/gluent.

Environment File

  1. Copy offload.env from an Oracle Database server into /opt/gluent/offload/conf

  2. Update offload.env setting OFFLOAD_TRANSPORT_CMD_HOST to localhost

  3. Ensure the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS path in offload.env is valid for the Gluent Node
