The [Core database](https://www.notion.so/Superhog-Core-Database-70786af3075e46d4a4e3ce303eb9ef00?pvs=21) is the main database for Superhog’s backend.
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
To access it:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Make sure you are connected to the [Data VPN](VPN%20Set%20up%2001affb09a9f648fbad89b74444f920ca.md).
|
|||
|
|
2. Fetch the reading user credentials from the `Dev` shared folder in Keeper. If you don’t have access to it, ask Pablo.
|
|||
|
|
3. Use the following connection details:
|
|||
|
|
1. host: superhog.database.windows.net
|
|||
|
|
2. port: 1433
|
|||
|
|
3. database: `live` (if you want to read from production) or `staging` (if you want to read from staging).
|
|||
|
|
4. Authentication type: `SQL Server Authentication`
|
|||
|
|

Be aware that this instructions are specific to Data team members. You might see different instructions elsewhere, feel free to ignore them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The details above will grant you read access. If you need write access… you really shouldn’t write there at all. Please check your needs with Pablo and Ben Robinson. Never connect to this database with the intention of writing into it unless you have crystal clear, explicit and documented approval from Ben R.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Also note that there are certain networking whitelist exceptions in place to allow Data team members to connect to it. These include our office locations and home IPs. Should your IP change or the office move, please get in touch with Ben Robinson to request an update in the whitelisting rules.
