Use Spring Data JDBC with Azure Database for PostgreSQL

This tutorial demonstrates how to store data in an Azure Database for PostgreSQL database using Spring Data JDBC.

JDBC is the standard Java API to connect to traditional relational databases.

In this tutorial, we include two authentication methods: Microsoft Entra authentication and PostgreSQL authentication. The Passwordless tab shows the Microsoft Entra authentication and the Password tab shows the PostgreSQL authentication.

Microsoft Entra authentication is a mechanism for connecting to Azure Database for PostgreSQL using identities defined in Microsoft Entra ID. With Microsoft Entra authentication, you can manage database user identities and other Microsoft services in a central location, which simplifies permission management.

PostgreSQL authentication uses accounts stored in PostgreSQL. If you choose to use passwords as credentials for the accounts, these credentials will be stored in the user table. Because these passwords are stored in PostgreSQL, you need to manage the rotation of the passwords by yourself.

  • PostgreSQL command line client.

  • If you don't have a Spring Boot application, create a Maven project with the Spring Initializr. Be sure to select Maven Project and, under Dependencies, add the Spring Web, Spring Data JDBC, and PostgreSQL Driver dependencies, and then select Java version 8 or higher.

In this tutorial, you'll code a sample application. If you want to go faster, this application is already coded and available at https://github.com/Azure-Samples/quickstart-spring-data-jdbc-postgresql.

Configure Spring Boot to use Azure Database for PostgreSQL

To store data from Azure Database for PostgreSQL using Spring Data JDBC, follow these steps to configure the application:

  1. Configure Azure Database for PostgreSQL credentials by adding the following properties to your application.properties configuration file.

    logging.level.org.springframework.jdbc.core=DEBUG
    
    spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgresql://postgresqlflexibletest.postgres.database.azure.com:5432/demo?sslmode=require
    spring.datasource.username=<your_postgresql_ad_non_admin_username>
    spring.datasource.azure.passwordless-enabled=true
    
    spring.sql.init.mode=always
    logging.level.org.springframework.jdbc.core=DEBUG
    
    spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgresql://postgresqlflexibletest.postgres.database.azure.com:5432/demo?sslmode=require
    spring.datasource.username=<your_postgresql_non_admin_username>
    spring.datasource.password=<your_postgresql_non_admin_password>
    
    spring.sql.init.mode=always

    [!WARNING] The configuration property spring.sql.init.mode=always means that Spring Boot will automatically generate a database schema, using the schema.sql file that you'll create next, each time the server is started. This feature is great for testing, but remember that it will delete your data at each restart, so you shouldn't use it in production.

  1. Create the src/main/resources/schema.sql configuration file to configure the database schema, then add the following contents.

    DROP TABLE IF EXISTS todo;
    CREATE TABLE todo (id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, description VARCHAR(255), details VARCHAR(4096), done BOOLEAN);
