This chapter describes connectors for the most popular and traditional databases. These
connectors cover various needs, including: opening connections, reading and writing tables,
committing transactions as a whole, as well as performing rollback for error handling. Over
40 RDBMS are supported. These components can be found in the Databases family in the Palette in the
Integration perspective of Talend Studio.

Other types of database connectors, such as connectors for Appliance/DW databases and
database management, are documented in Databases – appliance/datawarehouse components and Databases – other components.

For database version support information, see the
appendix on supported database versions of the Talend Installation
and Upgrade Guide of the Talend solution you are using.
