Database Autonomy Service:SSL certificate

Last Updated:May 07, 2025

The SSL certificate feature of global security management in Database Autonomy Service (DAS) displays database instances and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) information in a centralized manner. This topic describes how to use the SSL certificate feature in DAS.

Prerequisites

  • The database instance that you want to manage is connected to DAS.

  • The database instance is of one of the following types:

    • ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL

    • PolarDB for MySQL

  • If you use the SSL certificate feature as a RAM user, make sure that you have the AliyunHDMReadOnlyAccess or AliyunHDMFullAccess permission. For more information, see How do I use DAS as a RAM user?

Note
  • The global security management feature of DAS is in public preview. You can use the feature free of charge during public preview.

  • SSL certificates for proxy endpoints are not displayed.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the DAS console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Security Center > Global Security Management.

  3. On the Global Security Management page, click the SSL Certificate tab.

    Note
    • SSL Enabled Instances: the number of instances for which SSL is enabled or partially enabled.

    • In the main table, click the instance ID to go to the Basic Information page in the instance console. Click Details to go to the SSL Management page of the instance.

    Main table

    SSL Certificate Status

    The SSL status of the instance. Valid values: Enabled, Partially Enabled, and Disabled.

    Note
    • The page displays only endpoints that support the SSL feature.

    • For ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances, the SSL feature cannot be enabled by endpoint. You do not need to know the specific endpoint. The SSL information in the subtable is the same as the SSL information of the instance. Therefore, the value of the SSL Certificate Status field is Enabled or Disabled for ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances.

    • For PolarDB for MySQL clusters, the SSL feature can be enabled by primary endpoint, cluster endpoint, or custom endpoint.

    SSL Certificate Expiration Time

    The earliest SSL certificate expiration time among all endpoints of the instance.

    Subtable

    Endpoint ID

    For ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances, this field is empty. For PolarDB for MySQL clusters, this field is consistent with the EndpointId field on the Basic Information page in the ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL console.

    Endpoint Type

    For ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances, this field is empty. For PolarDB for MySQL clusters, the value of this field can be Primary Endpoint, Cluster Endpoint, or Custom Endpoint.

    SSL-protected Endpoint

    The instance endpoint for which the SSL encryption feature is enabled.

    SSL Certificate Status

    The SSL status of the instance endpoint. Valid values: Enabled and Disabled.

    Note

    If the value of this field is Disabled, the SSL-protected Endpoint, SSL Certificate Type, and SSL Certificate Expiration Time fields are empty.

    SSL Certificate Type

    The SSL certificate type of the instance endpoint. Valid values: Custom Certificate and Cloud Certificate.

    Note

    PolarDB for MySQL does not support custom certificates.

    SSL Certificate Expiration Time

    The SSL certificate expiration time of the instance endpoint.

    Note

    The SSL certificate expiration time is displayed based on the time zone of your browser.
