Create a Keystore for a Secure Connection to a Web Application Service

You can secure the connection between the Informatica domain and a web application service, such as the Analyst service. Informatica uses the SSL/TLS protocol to encrypt network traffic. To secure the connection, you must create the required files.

Before you can secure the connection to a web application service, verify that the following requirements are met:

You created a certificate signing request (CSR) and private key.: You can use keytool or OpenSSL to create the CSR and private key.; Note that RSA encryption requires more than 512 bits.

You have a signed SSL certificate.: The certificate can be self-signed or CA signed. Informatica recommends a CA signed certificate.

You imported the certificate into a keystore in JKS format.: A keystore must contain only one certificate. If you use a unique certificate for each web application service, create a separate keystore for each certificate. Alternatively, you can use a shared certificate and keystore.; If you use the installer-generated SSL certificate for the Administrator tool, you do not need to import the certificate into a keystore in JKS format.

The keystore is in an accessible directory.: The keystore must be in a directory that is accessible to the Administrator tool.
