Connect string options
The connect string options are optional. If non-standard connections are required, Oracle supports using tsnames format.
When the connect string options field is used:
- The connect string options parameters are prepended with
jdbc:oracle:thin:@. - The following fields are ignored from the form. These values must be specified as part of the tsnames :
- Host
- Port
- Service
- SSL
After you specify the connect string options, the generated connection URL is automatically prepended with the following protocol information. Do not add this to the connection URL or connect string options:
| Code Block |
|---|
jdbc:oracle:thin:@ |
Examples are below.
Use SID:
If you are using a service identifier, instead of a service name, please specify your connection string options as follows:
| Code Block |
|---|
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=oracle.rds.example.com)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=orcl))) |
Use TCPS:
If TCPS protocol is required, you can specify your connection string options as follows:
| Code Block |
|---|
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcps)(HOST=oracle.rds.example.com)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=orcl))) |
