Private Endpoints to Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) (Outbound REST)
Private Endpoints to Customer Virtual Cloud Networks (VCNs) in their OCI Tenancy is a new option available to all cloud customers .It enables endpoints in your private network to receive traffic from Oracle Energy and Water Cloud Services without going through the public internet (SaaS-to-Customer (S2C, "reverse flow"), also known as Outbound network traffic to customer endpoint).
It order to use this new functionality, you are required to extend your private networks into OCI. Then you can receive traffic from you Cloud Service to the endpoints within the extended network.
This enables private network endpoints to receive traffic from Oracle Energy and Water Cloud Services without going through the public internet.
Steps to Enable
To enable this feature, complete these steps:
- Create a "bridge compartment" in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tenancy that will host the Private Endpoint (PE) or Reverse Connection Endpoint (RCE). A "bridge compartment" consists of a VCN with a private subnet. Only one bridge compartment is needed per customer tenancy.
- Provide the following information to DevOps to be able to create a PE or RCE on the customer's virtual cloud network:
- Customer Name
- Customer Tenancy Name
- Customer Tenancy OCID
- Compartment Name
- Compartment OCID
- Customer VCN Name
- Customer VCN OCID
- DNS of the customer's VCN
- CIDR of the customer's VCN
- Subnet name in the customer's tenancy
- Subnet's OCID
- Subnet's CIDR
- Customer endpoint that will be accessed through RCE
- Perform access testing to the customer endpoint via PE or RCE.
