Adding Pinot Database
In order to add Pinot cluster as a database, a SQLAlchemy URI is required.
The format of URI is:
pinot://<pinot-broker-host>:<pinot-broker-port><pinot-broker-path>?controller=<pinot-controller-host>:<pinot-controller-port>
E.g.
pinot://pinot-broker:8099/query/sql?controller=http://pinot-controller:9000/
Below is an example for the QuickStart cluster, you can click TEST CONNECTION
button to check if Pinot cluster is successfully connected.
