You can use connection properties to customize the driver for your environment. This section lists the connection properties supported by the driver and describes each property. You can use these connection properties with either the JDBC Driver Manager or a JDBC data source. For a Driver Manager connection, a property is expressed as a key value pair and takes the form property=value. For a data source connection, a property is expressed as a JDBC method and takes the form setproperty(value).

The following sections describe the connection properties supported by the Driver for Amazon Redshift.

Note: All connection property names are case-insensitive. For example, Password is the same as password. Required properties are noted as such.
Note: The data type listed for each connection property is the Java data type used for the property value in a JDBC data source.
