Hello, O.k., the basic JDBC syntax is:
jdbc:<driver>://<host>[:<port>]/<database_name> Where driver is the actual database such as postgresql or db2. I am thinking something like: postgres:ssl://localhost:5432/template Many drivers support an extended syntax like: postgres:ssl://localhost:5432/template1/?username=jd&password=foobar&ssl=true But I don't know if we want to go there.
