1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing system of a data enrichment system, a request to access a data source from the data enrichment system, wherein the request includes identification information of the data source and a source type of the data source;
determining, by the computing system, using the identification information, that the data enrichment system does not have a connection to the data source;
rendering a user interface to receive connection information for the data source, the connection information based on the source type;
receiving, by the computing system, via the user interface, a set of connection parameters, the set of connection parameters including a connection name, a connection type, a data source location, and credential information;
storing the set of connection parameters in a data repository system accessible to the data enrichment system;
establishing, by the computing system, using the set of connection parameters, a connection between the data enrichment system and the data source; and
generating, by the computing system, a profile for a data set accessed from the data source via the connection.

Abstract
Techniques are disclosure for a data enrichment system that enables declarative external data source importation and exportation. A user can specify via a user interface input for identifying different data sources from which to obtain input data. The data enrichment system is configured to import and export various types of sources storing resources such as URL-based resources and HDFS-based resources for high-speed bi-directional metadata and data interchange. Connection metadata (e.g., credentials, access paths, etc.) can be managed by the data enrichment system in a declarative format for managing and visualizing the connection metadata.

8. A data enrichment system comprising:
-
a plurality of data sources; a data repository system; and a cloud computing infrastructure system comprising; one or more processors communicatively coupled to the plurality of data sources over at least one communication network; and a memory coupled to the one or more processors, the memory storing instructions to provide a data enrichment service, wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to; receive a request to access a data source of the plurality of data sources, wherein the request includes identification information of the data source and a source type of the data source; determine, using the identification information, that the data enrichment system does not have a connection to the data source; render a user interface to receive connection information for the data source, the connection information based on the source type; receive, via the user interface, a set of connection parameters, the set of connection parameters including a connection name, a connection type, a data source location, and credential information; store the set of connection parameters in a data repository system accessible to the data enrichment system; establish, using the set of connection parameters, a connection between the data enrichment system and the data source; and generate a profile for a data set accessed from the data source via the connection - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium including instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
-
receive, by a computing system of a data enrichment system, a request to access a data source from the data enrichment system, wherein the request includes identification information of the data source and a source type of the data source; determine, by the computing system, using the identification information, that the data enrichment system does not have a connection to the data source; render a user interface to receive connection information for the data source, the connection information based on the source type; receive, by the computing system, via the user interface, a set of connection parameters, the set of connection parameters including a connection name, a connection type, a data source location, and credential information; store the set of connection parameters in a data repository system accessible to the data enrichment system; establish, by the computing system, using the set of connection parameters, a connection between the data enrichment system and the data source; and generate, by the computing system, a profile for a data set accessed from the data source via the connection. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
