Excluded Column Data Types

Certain column data types SHOULD be excluded during discovery due to performance and low utility for sensitive-data inference. Engine-specific parameters are provided in System Config Manager:

· sdd.query.oracle.column.excluded_types : Defines excluded column types for Oracle databases.

· sdd.query.postgresql.column.excluded_types : Defines excluded column types for PostgreSQL databases.

· sdd.query.teradata.column.excluded_types : Defines excluded column types for Teradata databases.

· sdd.query.sqlserver.column.excluded_types : Defines excluded column types for SQL Server databases.

· sdd.query.mysql.column.excluded_types : Defines excluded column types for MySQL databases.

Example:

sdd.query.oracle.column.excluded_types = CLOB;BLOB;NCLOB;BFILE

sdd.query.postgresql.column.excluded_types = BYTEA

sdd.query.sqlserver.column.excluded_types = VARBINARY;VARBINARY(MAX);IMAGE;XML

sdd.query.mysql.column.excluded_types = BLOB;MEDIUMBLOB;LONGBLOB;GEOMETRY
