Enabling or Disabling SSL¶
Scenarios¶
DDS allows you to use SSL to encrypt connections to a DB instance to protect your data.
If SSL is enabled, you can connect to a DB instance using SSL. For details, see sections about connecting to a DB instance using SSL over public or private networks in this document.
If SSL is disabled, you can connect to the DB instance using an unencrypted connection. For details, see sections about connecting to a DB instance using an unencrypted connection over public or private networks in this document.
Important
For security purposes, disabling SSL is not advised.
Enabling or disabling SSL will cause DB instance restart. Exercise caution when you perform this operation.
