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 database using SSL. For details, see SSL Connection.
• If SSL is disabled, you can connect to the database using a common connection. For details, see Common Connection.

Enabling or disabling SSL will cause DB instance restart. Exercise caution when you perform this operation.
