Global Connections
In this article
Connections in Gathr enable seamless integration with various services such as ElasticSearch, JDBC, Kafka, RabbitMQ, and more. These connections can be created and stored within the Gathr application, and are essential for configuring services across different features like Data Pipelines, Datasets, and Applications.

Superusers can create and manage connections for all users across all workspaces. For Superuser, Gathr provides some default connections out-of-the-box, which are editable except for RabbitMQ.
