  • Where is the database located? If your source is an Amazon RDS for MariaDB instance, select that, otherwise leave set to the default.

  • Hostname: Enter the IP address or fully qualified network name of the instance (for example, 198.51.100.10 or mydb.123456789012.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com) or, if you are connecting via an SSH tunnel, paste the string copied from Striim Cloud Console > Service details > Secure connection > Tunnel Address (see Configure Striim to use your SSH tunnel).

  • Port: Enter the port for the specified host.

  • Username: Enter the name of the user you created when you Set up your MariaDB source.

  • Password: Enter the password associated with the specified user name.

  • Connect using SSL: Select if connecting to the source database using SSL. See the detailed instructions below.

  • Source connection name: Enter a descriptive name, such as MariaDBConnection1.

Use SSL with on-premise MariaDB

  1. Acquire a certificate in .pem format as described in MariaDB > Enterprise Documentation > Security > Data in-transit encryption > Enabling TLS on MariaDB Server

  2. Import the certificate into a custom Java truststore file:

    keytool -importcert -alias MariaCACert -file <file name>.pem \
  -keystore truststore.jks -storepass mypassword

  3. Convert client keys/certificate files to PKCS#12:

    openssl pkcs12 -export -in client-cert.pem -inkeyclient-key.pem \
  -name “mysqlclient” -passoutpass:mypassword -out client-keystore.p12

  4. Create a Java Keystore using the client-keystore.p12 file:

    Create the truststore.jks file (replace <file name> with the name of the file you downloaded):

    keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore client-keystore.p12-srcstoretype pkcs12 \
  -srcstorepass mypassword-destkeystore keystore.jks \
  -deststoretype JKS-deststorepass mypassword

  5. Set these properties in Striim:

    • Verify server certificate: Enable if you want Striim to verify all the following certificates while establishing the connection.

    • Trust certificate keystore URL: upload the truststore.jks file created in step 3

    • Trust certificate keystore type: enter the store type you specified in step 3

    • Trust certificate keystore password: enter the password you specified in step 3

    • Client certificate keystore URL: upload the keystore.jks file created in step 4

    • Client certificate keystore type: enter the store type you specified in step 4

    • Client certificate keystore password: enter the password you specified in step 4

Use SSL with Amazon RDS for MariaDB

  1. Download the appropriate .pem file from AWS > Documentation > Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) > User Guide > Using SSL/TLS to encrypt a connection to a DB instance.

  2. Create the truststore.jks file (replace <file name> with the name of the file you downloaded):

    keytool -importcert -alias MariaCACert -file server-ca.pem \
  -keystore truststore.jks -storepass mypassword

  3. Convert client keys/certificate files to PKCS#12:

    openssl pkcs12 -export -in client-cert.pem -inkeyclient-key.pem \
  -name “mysqlclient” -passoutpass:mypassword -out client-keystore.p12

  4. Set these properties in Striim:

    • Verify server certificate: Enable if you want Striim to verify all the following certificates while establishing the connection.

    • Trust certificate keystore URL: upload the truststore.jks file created in step 3

    • Trust certificate keystore type: enter the store type you specified in step 3

    • Trust certificate keystore password: enter the password you specified in step 3
