Full Kerberos Support for IIDR CDC for Oracle

As part of the support ticket TS004884043, we found out that there is some Kerberos support currently available in IIDR CDC and that was tested too. However, it was mentioned that CDC switches to fast loads (non jdbc) for refreshes (bigger tables), which does not support Kerberos authentication still. It was suggested that use_jdbc_for_refresh=true flag can be used to force jdbc, however that will be multiple times slower. Also, there are connections from CDC which are not used by subscriptions, those are using username password based connections still. Management console also asks for username, password when datastore is added. So, this request is to support Kerebros across the components IIDR CDC uses (CDC Replication Engine for Oracle (Transformation Server), Access Server and Management Console).

    Thanks for filling this requirement.

    After reviews (on calls), the key gap identified was the need for keberos support for the connections to Oracle made by the CDC fastload. We agree that this specific requirement is valid and we will add the requirement to our plan.

    Our tentative schedule is Q4 2021. We will provide further updates as we know more.
