Connect to Oracle Autonomous JSON Database

Learn to create a connection to Oracle Autonomous JSON Database to use as a target for OCI GoldenGate.

Before you begin

Before you create the connection, ensure that you review how OCI GoldenGate connects to your source and targets.

Create a connection to Oracle Autonomous JSON Database

Learn to create a connection to an Oracle Autonomous JSON Database to use as a target in a replication process.

To create an Oracle Autonomous JSON Database connection:
  1. From the OCI GoldenGate Overview page, click Connections.
    You can also click Create Connection under the Get started section and skip to step 3.
  2. On the Connections page, click Create Connection.
  3. In the Create Connection panel, complete the General Information fields as follows:
    1. For Name, enter a name for the connection.
    2. (Optional) For Description, enter a description that helps you distinguish this connection from others.
    3. For Compartment, select the compartment in which to create the connection.
    4. Select Oracle Autonomous JSON Database frome the Type dropdown.
    5. (Optional) Click Show advanced options to manage keys or add tags.
      1. Under Security, select one of the following:
        • Select Use Oracle-managed encryption key to leave all encryption key management to Oracle.
        • Select Use customer-managed encryption key to select a specific encryption key stored in your OCI Vault to encrypt your connection credentials.
      2. Under Tags, add tags to organize your resources.
  4. Click Next.
  5. Complete the Connection details fields as follows:
    1. In the Database details section, choose:
      • Select database to select from a list of existing Autonomous JSON Databases in the compartment. Click Change Compartment to select a database in a different compartment.
      • Enter database information and then manually enter the Connection String.

        Note:

        If a private IP is entered, then OCI GoldenGate rewrites the private IP in the format, ip-10-0-0-0.ociggsvc.oracle.vcn.com.
    2. Enter the Username and Password for the Oracle Autonomous JSON Database.
    3. For Network connectivity, select a Traffic routing method:
      • Shared endpoint, to share an endpoint with the assigned deployment. You must allow connectivity from the deployment's ingress IP.
      • Dedicated endpoint, for network traffic through a dedicated endpoint in the assigned subnet in your VCN. You must allow connectivity from this connection's ingress IPs.
  6. Click Create.
After creating the connection, it appears in the Connections list where you can view its details. Ensure that you assign the connection to a Big Data deployment to use it as a target in a replication.
