Secure Model Repository Database

When you create a Model Repository Service, you can create the associated Model repository in a database secured with the SSL protocol.

The Model Repository Service connects to the Model repository database through JDBC drivers.

Set up a database secured with the SSL protocol.

In the Administrator tool, create a Model Repository Service.

In the

New Model Repository Service

dialog box, enter the general properties for the Model Repository Service and click

Enter the database properties and the JDBC connection string for the Model Repository Service.

To connect to a secure database, enter the secure database parameters in the

Secure JDBC Parameters

field. Informatica treats the value of

Secure JDBC Parameters

field as sensitive data and stores the parameter string encrypted.

The following list describes the secure database parameters:

EncryptionMethod: Required. Indicates whether data is encrypted when transmitted over the network. This parameter must be set to
SSL
.
ValidateServerCertificate: Optional. Indicates whether Informatica validates the certificate that the database server sends.

If this parameter is set to True, Informatica validates the certificate that the database server sends. If you specify the HostNameInCertificate parameter, Informatica also validates the host name in the certificate.

If this parameter is set to False, Informatica does not validate the certificate that the database server sends. Informatica ignores any truststore information that you specify.

Default is True.
HostNameInCertificate: Optional. Host name of the machine that hosts the secure database. If you specify a host name, Informatica validates the host name included in the connection string against the host name in the SSL certificate.
cryptoProtocolVersion: Required. Specifies the cryptographic protocol to use to connect to a secure database. You can set the parameter to
cryptoProtocolVersion=TLSv1.1
or
cryptoProtocolVersion=TLSv1.2
based on the cryptographic protocol used by the database server.
TrustStore: Required. Path and file name of the truststore file that contains the SSL certificate for the database.
If you do not include the path for the truststore file, Informatica looks for the file in the following default directory:
<InformaticaInstallationDirectory>/tomcat/bin
TrustStorePassword: Required. Password for the truststore file for the secure database.

Informatica appends the secure JDBC parameters to the JDBC connection string. If you include the secure JDBC parameters directly to the connection string, do not enter any parameter in the

Secure JDBC Parameters

field.

Test the connection to verify that the connection to the secure repository database is valid.
