Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) for Oracle now supports additional use cases for Oracle Connection Manager (CMAN). CMAN is a proxy server that forwards connection requests to database servers or other proxy servers.
The primary functions of Oracle Connection Manager are access control and session multiplexing. CMAN allows rule-based Access Control configuration to filter out user-specified client requests. This allows CMAN to reject connections from unknown clients. CMAN is used to configure session multiplexing by funneling multiple client sessions through a network connection to a shared server destination. Session multiplexing in CMAN reduces operating system and network resource requirements by minimizing the number of network connections made to a server.
CMAN supports all supported versions of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition (EE). To learn more about how to configure Oracle Connection Manager (CMAN), please refer to Configuring CMAN documentation.
