About Connecting to Endpoints Using a Private Virtual Cloud Network (VCN)

You can configure access to private resources available in your virtual cloud network (VCN) in Oracle Integration.

Topics:

Outbound Private Connection Pattern

An outbound private connection pattern uses a private endpoint to connect to private resources that are in your virtual cloud network (VCN).

Create a virtual cloud network (VCN) and subnet, and add private resources to the subnet. Next, configure a private endpoint.

Outbound traffic from Oracle Integration goes through a private channel that is set up within the Oracle Cloud and connects to the private resources in the subnet. The traffic never goes through the public internet.

To get started, see Connect to Private Resources in Provisioning and Administering Oracle Integration 3.

Your tenancy is in the Oracle Cloud. Your tenancy contains several resources, including your Oracle Integration instance and a VCN, which contains a private subnet. The Oracle Integration instance contains an integration that has a connection based on the Oracle ATP Adapter. Outbound traffic from the Oracle Integration instance flows over a secure connection through the private endpoint and connects to the Virtual Network Interface Card (VNIC), which is in the VCN. The VNIC allows for a connection to an Oracle Autotonomous Database (ATP) in the subnet.

Ensure Private Endpoint Configuration is Successful

  • To connect to private endpoints, you must complete prerequisite tasks in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. Failure to do so results in errors when testing the connection. See Connect to Private Resources in Provisioning and Administering Oracle Integration 3.
  • When configuring an adapter on the Connections page to connect to endpoints using a private network, specify the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) and not the IP address. If you enter an IP address, validation fails when you click Test.
  • IPSec tunneling and Fastconnect are not supported for use with private endpoints.
