Tasks
This article addresses how to apply for the connection string to the URL under "Common and Required Data Source Properties."
Resolution
Below are examples of the connection strings to connect to the Oracle Database.

An example of a database specifier using the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) syntax is as follows:  
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@ldap://ldap.acme.com:7777/sales,cn=OracleContext,dc=com"

When using SSL, change the syntax to  be as shown below.  
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@ldaps://ldap.acme.com:7777/sales,cn=OracleContext,dc=com" 
Notes
The JDBC Thin driver can use LDAP over SSL to communicate with the Oracle Internet Directory if you substitute ldaps: for ldap: in the database specifier.
The LDAP server must be configured to use SSL. If it is not, then the connection attempt will hang.
