  +=== {prodname} Oracle connector configuration
  +
  +Typically, you register a {prodname} Oracle connector by submitting a JSON request that specifies the configuration properties for the connector.
   The following example shows a JSON request for registering an instance of the {prodname} Oracle connector with logical name `server1` at port 1521:
  -Typically, you configure the {prodname} Oracle connector in a JSON file by setting the configuration properties that are available for the connector.
   
   You can choose to produce events for a subset of the schemas and tables in a database.
   Optionally, you can ignore, mask, or truncate columns that contain sensitive data, that are larger than a specified size, or that you do not need.
