  "type" : "RdsDatabase",
  "region" : "us-east-1",
  "username" : "user_name",
  "*password" : "my_password",
  "rdsInstanceId" : "my_db_instance_identifier"
}

For the Oracle engine, the jdbcDriverJarUri field is required and you can specify the following driver: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/jdbc-drivers-12c-download-1958347.html.
