Amazon Redshift Connection Properties

Amazon Redshift Connection Properties

When you set up an Amazon Redshift connection, you must configure the connection properties.
The following table describes the Amazon Redshift connection properties:
Property
Description
Name
The name of the connection. The name is not case sensitive and must be unique within the domain. You can change this property after you create the connection. The name cannot exceed 128 characters, contain spaces, or contain the following special characters:~ ` ! $ % ^ & * ( ) - + = { [ } ] | \ : ; " ' < , > . ? /
ID
String that the Data Integration Service uses to identify the connection. The ID is not case sensitive. It must be 255 characters or less and must be unique in the domain. You cannot change this property after you create the connection. Default value is the connection name.
Description
The description of the connection. The description cannot exceed 4,000 characters.
Location
The domain where you want to create the connection.
Type
The connection type. Select Amazon Redshift in the Database.
The
Details
 tab contains the connection attributes of the Amazon Redshift connection. The following table describes the connection attributes:
Property
Description
Username
User name of the Amazon Redshift account.
Password
Password for the Amazon Redshift account.
Access Key ID
Amazon S3 bucket access key ID.
Required if you do not use AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) authentication.
Secret Access Key
Amazon S3 bucket secret access key ID.
Required if you do not use AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) authentication.
Master Symmetric Key
Optional. Provide a 256-bit AES encryption key in the Base64 format when you enable client-side encryption. You can generate a key using a third-party tool.
If you specify a value, ensure that you specify the encryption type as client side encryption in the advanced target properties.
JDBC URL
Amazon Redshift connection URL.
Cluster Region
Optional. The AWS cluster region in which the bucket you want to access resides.
Select a cluster region if you choose to provide a custom JDBC URL that does not contain a cluster region name in the
JDBC URL
 connection property.
If you specify a cluster region in both
Cluster Region
 and
JDBC URL
 connection properties, the Data Integration Service ignores the cluster region that you specify in the
JDBC URL
 connection property.
To use the cluster region name that you specify in the
JDBC URL
 connection property, select
None
 as the cluster region in this property.
Select one of the following cluster regions:
Select one of the following regions:
  • Asia Pacific (Mumbai)
  • Asia Pacific (Seoul)
  • Asia Pacific (Singapore)
  • Asia Pacific (Sydney)
  • Asia Pacific (Tokyo)
  • AWS GovCloud (US)
  • Canada (Central)
  • China (Beijing)
  • China (Ningxia)
  • EU (Ireland)

  • EU (Paris)
  • South America (Sao Paulo)

Default is None.
You can only read data from or write data to the cluster regions supported by AWS SDK used by PowerExchange for Amazon Redshift.
Customer Master Key ID
Optional. Specify the customer master key ID generated by AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) or the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of your custom key for cross-account access. You must generate the customer master key corresponding to the region where Amazon S3 bucket resides. You can specify any of the following values:
Customer generated customer master key
Enables client-side or server-side encryption.
Default customer master key
Enables client-side or server-side encryption. Only the administrator user of the account can use the default customer master key ID to enable client-side encryption.
