MongoDB and TIBCO Spotfire Integration using MongoDB ODBC Driver

Following our recent video tutorial series on getting started with MongoDB, I wanted to walk through taking the next step with your data—creating visualizations that will help you gain key insights. Here's how to get this done with TIBCO Spotfire!

Step-by-Step Walkthrough of Integrating Your Data with TIBCO Spotfire

  1. Create an ODBC Data Source using the DataDirect MongoDB driver. Note: The following steps also apply to any of our other ODBC drivers. Also, my TIBCO Spotfire is a 64bit application, so I downloaded the 64bit driver and created a 64bit data source. If your TIBCO Spotfire is a 32bit application, you will need to install the 32bit driver.
