Example: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver

String

Required. The name of the JBDC driver to use.

Database specifier type

Default Value: Service name
Example: Service name

Specify the database specifier type to use. The selected option decides which format of URL for JDBC is to be used internally. The valid options are:

• SID: Uses the jdbc:oracle:thin@HOST:PORT:DBNAME format.

• Service name: Uses the jdbc:oracle:thin@//HOST:PORT/DBNAME format. 

SSL/ TCPS

Default Value: Deselected

String

Opt for or against connecting through SSL to the Oracle instance.

If selected, the following format of URL is used internally:

jdbc:oracle:thin@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCPS)(HOST=<HOST>)(PORT=<PORT>))(CONNECT_DATA=(<SID/ SERVICE_NAME>=<DATABASE_NAME>)))

Advanced properties

Specify advanced properties to connect to the database.

Auto commit

Default Value: Selected

String

Opt for or against setting the auto-commit property for a database.

• When selected, each of the batches is committed immediately after it is executed. If the Snap fails, only the batch being executed at that moment is rolled back.

• When not selected, the Snap execution output is committed only after all the batches are executed. If the Snap fails, the entire transaction is rolled back, unless the Snap finds invalid input data before it sends the insert request to the server, and routes the error documents to the Error view.

Batch size

Default Value: 50
Example: 100

Integer

Required. Set the number of statements that the Snap must execute at a time.

Fetch size

Default Value: 100
Example: 100

Integer

Required. Set the number of rows that the Snap must fetch at a time when executing a query.

Max pool size

Default Value: 50
Example: 50

Integer

Required. Set the maximum number of connections that a pool must maintain at a time.

Default Value: 30
Example: 35

Integer

Required. Set the maximum time (in minutes) of a connection in the pool. Ensure that the value you enter is a few seconds shorter than any database or infrastructure-imposed connection time limit. A value of 0 indicates an infinite lifetime, subject to the Idle Timeout value. An in-use connection is never retired. Connections are removed only after they are closed.

Idle Timeout

Default Value: 5
Example: 5

Integer

Required. Set the maximum time (in seconds) that a connection is allowed to sit idle in the pool. A value of 0 indicates that idle connections are never removed from the pool.
