connectionType

The type of the connection. Currently, these types are supported:

• JDBC - Designates a connection to a database through Java Database Connectivity (JDBC).JDBC Connections use the following ConnectionParameters.

• Required: All of (HOST, PORT, JDBC_ENGINE) or JDBC_CONNECTION_URL.

• Required: All of (USERNAME, PASSWORD) or SECRET_ID.

• Optional: JDBC_ENFORCE_SSL, CUSTOM_JDBC_CERT, CUSTOM_JDBC_CERT_STRING, SKIP_CUSTOM_JDBC_CERT_VALIDATION. These parameters are used to configure SSL with JDBC.

• KAFKA - Designates a connection to an Apache Kafka streaming platform.KAFKA Connections use the following ConnectionParameters.

• Required: KAFKA_BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS.

• Optional: KAFKA_SSL_ENABLED, KAFKA_CUSTOM_CERT, KAFKA_SKIP_CUSTOM_CERT_VALIDATION. These parameters are used to configure SSL with KAFKA.

• Optional: KAFKA_CLIENT_KEYSTORE, KAFKA_CLIENT_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD, KAFKA_CLIENT_KEY_PASSWORD, ENCRYPTED_KAFKA_CLIENT_KEYSTORE_PASSWORD, ENCRYPTED_KAFKA_CLIENT_KEY_PASSWORD. These parameters are used to configure TLS client configuration with SSL in KAFKA.

• Optional: KAFKA_SASL_MECHANISM. Can be specified as SCRAM-SHA-512, GSSAPI, or AWS_MSK_IAM.

• Optional: KAFKA_SASL_SCRAM_USERNAME, KAFKA_SASL_SCRAM_PASSWORD, ENCRYPTED_KAFKA_SASL_SCRAM_PASSWORD. These parameters are used to configure SASL/SCRAM-SHA-512 authentication with KAFKA.

• Optional: KAFKA_SASL_GSSAPI_KEYTAB, KAFKA_SASL_GSSAPI_KRB5_CONF, KAFKA_SASL_GSSAPI_SERVICE, KAFKA_SASL_GSSAPI_PRINCIPAL. These parameters are used to configure SASL/GSSAPI authentication with KAFKA.

• MONGODB - Designates a connection to a MongoDB document database.MONGODB Connections use the following ConnectionParameters.

• Required: CONNECTION_URL.

• Required: All of (USERNAME, PASSWORD) or SECRET_ID.

• VIEW_VALIDATION_REDSHIFT - Designates a connection used for view validation by Amazon Redshift.

• VIEW_VALIDATION_ATHENA - Designates a connection used for view validation by Amazon Athena.

• NETWORK - Designates a network connection to a data source within an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud environment (Amazon VPC).NETWORK Connections do not require ConnectionParameters. Instead, provide a PhysicalConnectionRequirements.

• MARKETPLACE - Uses configuration settings contained in a connector purchased from Amazon Web Services Marketplace to read from and write to data stores that are not natively supported by Glue.MARKETPLACE Connections use the following ConnectionParameters.

• Required: CONNECTOR_TYPE, CONNECTOR_URL, CONNECTOR_CLASS_NAME, CONNECTION_URL.

• Required for JDBC``CONNECTOR_TYPE connections: All of (USERNAME, PASSWORD) or SECRET_ID.

• CUSTOM - Uses configuration settings contained in a custom connector to read from and write to data stores that are not natively supported by Glue.

For more information on the connection parameters needed for a particular connector, see the documentation for the connector in Adding an Glue connectionin the Glue User Guide.

SFTP is not supported.
