Can CS-Studio (Phoebus) connect to a Microsoft SQL Server database?

Greetings!

Can CS-Studio (Phoebus) connect to a Microsoft SQL Server database? Are there any specific documentation references you could refer me to?

Thank you!

@CuriousGeoSq, there is currently no part of the code base that connects to MS SQL server.

Thank you for the reply, @georgweiss.

Is there a particular usecase here? are we talking about some kind of archiver which uses Microsoft SQL server databse.

Yes, utilizing CSS in a non-EPICS based environment.

There is

The Archive Engine which is a service to run an archiver backed by a relational database
- Maybeeeeee, that could be altered to run in 'no write' mode and just read from the RDB
JSON Databrowser source, so you just need a thin layer to convert from sql output to suitable json
Timescale Databrowser source, includes a script to copy data from an RDB source to timescale and then you can use timescale as a datasource.

Thank you very much! Appreciate the input!
