Update

I managed to connect to the Cache system remotely and ran som sample queries fetching data with the JDBC driver. Unfortunately it is much slower than with the Python binding.  In my simple test it was in fact nearly 20 times slower. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Hi David

I am looking into using the JDBC driver. This method will also allow the use of cursors which is not available with the python binding, if I have understood it correctly. Will let you know how it goes.

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback, Sergey. 

We have an external developer that handles the system, so I would prefer to leave the installation as is and connect remotely.
