DataWorks:Attach an AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 computing resource

Last Updated:Oct 29, 2025

To develop and manage AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 tasks in DataWorks, you must first attach your AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster as an AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) computing resource. After the resource is attached, DataWorks can use it to connect to the AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster. This lets you perform operations such as data synchronization, data development, and data analysis.

Prerequisites

  • An AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster is created.

    Note

    When you purchase an AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster, select the same Region as your DataWorks workspace. If the regions are different, you cannot attach the cluster to the workspace as a computing resource.

  • A DataWorks workspace is created. The Resource Access Management (RAM) user who performs the operation must be added to the workspace and assigned the Workspace Administrator role.

  • A resource group is attached to the workspace, and its network connectivity is confirmed.

    • If you use a Serverless resource group, ensure that the AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) computing resource can connect to the Serverless resource group.

    • If you use a legacy exclusive resource group, ensure that the AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) computing resource can connect to the exclusive resource group for scheduling for the relevant scenario.

    • The resource group must be attached to the same VPC as the AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster. Add the IP addresses of the resource group to the whitelist of the AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster.

Limits

  • Region: China (Hangzhou), China (Shanghai), China (Beijing), China (Shenzhen), China (Hong Kong), Japan (Tokyo), Singapore, Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur), and Indonesia (Jakarta).

  • Permissions:

    Operator

    Required permissions

    Alibaba Cloud account

    No extra permissions are required.

    RAM user/RAM role

    Only workspace members with the O&M or Workspace Administrator role, or members with the AliyunDataWorksFullAccess permission can create computing resources. For more information about authorization, see Grant permissions to a workspace administrator.

    Enter the name of a database that is already created in the AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster.

    Username and Password

    The database account and password that can be used to access the AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 cluster. If you do not have an account, you can create a database account.

    Computing Resource Instance Name

    Enter a custom name for the computing resource. At runtime, you can select the computing resource for a task based on this name.

  3. Test the connectivity.

    In the connection settings section, select the resource group that DataWorks will use to run AnalyticDB for MySQL 3.0 tasks. Click Test Connectivity to verify that the resource group can access your AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) cluster. For more information, see Overview of network connection solutions.

  4. Click Confirm to complete the configuration.

    Note

    When you attach an AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) computing resource, the system automatically creates an AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) data source with the same name in the Data Source section of the current workspace.

Legacy Data Development: Attach an AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) computing resource

Attach an AnalyticDB for MySQL (V3.0) computing resource to a workspace that does not Use The New Data Development (DataStudio).

Go to the computing resources page

  1. Go to the DataStudio page.

    Log on to the DataWorks console. In the top navigation bar, select the desired region. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Data Development and O&M > Data Development. On the page that appears, select the desired workspace from the drop-down list and click Go to Data Development.
