Currently, I am storing the credentials in an XML file and consuming them in the code. But I don't want to store the credentials in XML due to security reasons.
Is it possible to store the credentials in the Windows credentials store and fetch them in code? Is it possible to access the Windows credentials store from a data miner?
Also, please suggest if there are any other better options to store and fetch the credentials to improve security.
I am not sure using Windows Credentials is a good option because it would rely on that server available or for it to be configured on the entire cluster. Does anyone know of a secure way to save them within Dataminer, either by a configurable hidden parameter in the XML or are people building a driver to encrypt and to store them?

Hello Ramesh,
Some weeks ago I posted a similar question in Dojo. In my case, I wanted to move the credentials from the code to somewhere safer and providing better privacy. The answer I got could help you. As far as I know, there is no way right now of storing them in Dataminer.
