Getting Started

Minimum Requirements

Before using the AWS Advanced JDBC Driver, you must install:

  • Amazon Corretto 8+ or Java 8+.
  • The AWS Advanced JDBC Driver.
  • Your choice of underlying JDBC driver. To use the wrapper with Aurora with PostgreSQL compatibility, you need to install the PostgreSQL JDBC Driver.

If you are using the AWS JDBC Driver as part of a Gradle project, include the wrapper and underlying driver as dependencies. For example, to include the AWS Advanced JDBC Driver and the PostgreSQL JDBC Driver as dependencies in a Gradle project, update the build.gradle file as follows:

dependencies {
    implementation group: 'software.amazon.jdbc', name: 'aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper', version: '2.0.0'
    implementation group: 'org.postgresql', name: 'postgresql', version: '42.5.0'
}

Obtaining the AWS Advanced JDBC Driver

Direct Download and Installation

You can use pre-compiled packages that can be downloaded directly from GitHub Releases or Maven Central to install the AWS Advanced JDBC Driver. After downloading the AWS JDBC Driver, install it by including the .jar file in the application's CLASSPATH.

For example, the following command uses wget to download the wrapper:

wget https://github.com/awslabs/aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper/releases/download/2.0.0/aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper-2.0.0.jar

Then, the following command adds the AWS JDBC Driver to the CLASSPATH:

export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/home/userx/libs/aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper-2.0.0.jar

As a Maven Dependency

You can use Maven's dependency management to obtain the AWS JDBC Driver by adding the following configuration to the application's Project Object Model (POM) file:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>software.amazon.jdbc</groupId>
        <artifactId>aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.0</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

As a Gradle Dependency

You can use Gradle's dependency management to obtain the AWS JDBC Driver by adding the following configuration to the application's build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    implementation group: 'software.amazon.jdbc', name: 'aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper', version: '2.0.0'
}

To add a Gradle dependency in a Kotlin syntax, use the following configuration:

dependencies {
    implementation("software.amazon.jdbc:aws-advanced-jdbc-wrapper:2.0.0")
}
