Connecting to third party databases #76
Description
Question: is it possible to use this library to connect to a third party database such as teradata.
This can be accomplished in Databricks directly by using python to import your drivers and load the data. Is is possible to use this library to either execute python code, trigger a workbook that has python code, or some other solution that connects us to out third party databases?

No, this is a NodeJS library. It lets you run Spark SQL queries against Databricks compute resources from a NodeJS environment. To run Spark SQL queries from Python simply you can use
databricks-sql-connectoror to run generic Python commands for fetching data from external locations you'll want something like PySpark.
