About Using Network Security Groups with Oracle Analytics Cloud

You can use network security groups (NSGs) to define ingress and egress security rules that restrict traffic to and from Oracle Analytics Cloud. This topic describes ingress and egress scenarios for Oracle Analytics Cloud.

About Ingress Scenarios for Oracle Analytics Cloud

The way you manage ingress depends whether your Oracle Analytics Cloud instance has a public or private endpoint.

• Public endpoint: Use access control rules to control incoming traffic. See Control Incoming Traffic to Public Endpoint (Ingress).
• Private endpoint: Use a union of ingress rules to control incoming traffic from:
  • NSGs for the private Oracle Analytics Cloud instance. See Control Incoming Traffic to Private Endpoint (Ingress).
  • Security lists for the subnet.

About Egress Scenarios for Oracle Analytics Cloud

The way you manage egress depends on the data source you want to access from Oracle Analytics Cloud.

• Publicly accessible data sources: Oracle Analytics Cloud can egress to any data source accessible on the public internet.
• Private data sources accessible through a private access channel: Use a union of egress rules to control outgoing traffic from:
  • NSGs for the private access channel. See Control Outgoing Traffic to Private Endpoint (Egress).
  • Security lists for the private access channel subnet.
