  Each value is a Value string, not more than 1024 bytes long.

  These key-value pairs define parameters for the connection:

  • HOST - The host URI: either the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or the IPv4 address of the database host.

  • PORT - The port number, between 1024 and 65535, of the port on which the database host is listening for database connections.

  • USER_NAME - The name under which to log in to the database. The value string for USER_NAME is "USERNAME".

  • PASSWORD - A password, if one is used, for the user name.

  • ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD - When you enable connection password protection by setting ConnectionPasswordEncryption in the Data Catalog encryption settings, this field stores the encrypted password.

  • SKIP_CUSTOM_JDBC_CERT_VALIDATION - By default, this is false. AWS Glue validates the Signature algorithm and Subject Public Key Algorithm for the customer certificate. The only permitted algorithms for the Signature algorithm are SHA256withRSA, SHA384withRSA or SHA512withRSA. For the Subject Public Key Algorithm, the key length must be at least 2048. You can set the value of this property to true to skip AWS Glue's validation of the customer certificate.

  • CUSTOM_JDBC_CERT_STRING - A custom JDBC certificate string which is used for domain match or distinguished name match to prevent a man-in-the-middle attack. In Oracle database, this is used as the SSL_SERVER_CERT_DN; in Microsoft SQL Server, this is used as the hostNameInCertificate.

  • KAFKA_CUSTOM_CERT - The Amazon S3 URL for the private CA cert file (.pem format). The default is an empty string.

  • KAFKA_SKIP_CUSTOM_CERT_VALIDATION - Whether to skip the validation of the CA cert file or not. AWS Glue validates for three algorithms: SHA256withRSA, SHA384withRSA and SHA512withRSA. Default value is "false".

  • KAFKA_CLIENT_KEYSTORE - The Amazon S3 location of the client keystore file for Kafka client side authentication (Optional).

  • KAFKA_CLIENT_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD - The password to access the provided keystore (Optional).

  • KAFKA_CLIENT_KEY_PASSWORD - A keystore can consist of multiple keys, so this is the password to access the client key to be used with the Kafka server side key (Optional).

  • ENCRYPTED_KAFKA_CLIENT_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD - The encrypted version of the Kafka client keystore password (if the user has the AWS Glue encrypt passwords setting selected).

  • ENCRYPTED_KAFKA_CLIENT_KEY_PASSWORD - The encrypted version of the Kafka client key password (if the user has the AWS Glue encrypt passwords setting selected).
