EJBCA Cloud 2.1 Release Notes

PrimeKey is pleased to announce the release of EJBCA Cloud 2.1.

EJBCA Cloud 2.1 adds more robust RDS/Aurora database integration options.

Highlights

Improved Database Configuration

You can now select to join a node to an existing EJBCA database, provided you already have a database with an existing EJBCA installation. 

The configuration wizard also performs a check for an existing database with the name provided. If the database already exists, the installation will not proceed and you are given a Database Exists error. To resolve the issue, either change the database name or drop the existing database that was manually created.

For more information, see Database Configuration
