Oracle Cloud VPN and FastConnect

Oracle Cloud VPN and FastConnect are two ways to connect your on-premises network to Oracle Cloud. They provide secure and reliable connectivity between your network and Oracle Cloud resources, enabling you to build and deploy hybrid cloud solutions.

Steps or Explanation

Oracle Cloud VPN:

1. Create an Oracle Cloud VPN Connect service: You can create an Oracle Cloud VPN Connect service by selecting the desired service from the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console and following the prompts.

2. Configure your on-premises VPN devices: After creating the VPN Connect service, you need to configure your on-premises VPN device to establish a secure tunnel between your on-premises network and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Oracle Cloud FastConnect:

1. Create a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN): You can create a VCN in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure that will connect to your on-premises network using Oracle Cloud FastConnect.

2. Request a cross-connect: After creating the VCN, you can request a cross-connect from an Oracle Cloud FastConnect partner. The partner will provide you with the physical connection between your on-premises network and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

3. Configure your network: Once the cross-connect is established, you need to configure your network to connect to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

Examples and Use Cases

Oracle Cloud VPN and FastConnect are used to connect on-premises networks to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Some common use cases include:

• Hybrid cloud solutions that require connectivity between on-premises and cloud resources
• GDPR-compliant replication and backup across regions
• Migration of workload to Oracle Cloud infrastructure

Important Points

• Oracle Cloud VPN Connect service provides a secure and reliable connection between your on-premises network and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
• Oracle Cloud FastConnect provides a dedicated, private connection between your on-premises network and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure via a cloud provider.
• Both VPN and FastConnect can be used for hybrid cloud solutions, GDPR compliant backup and replication, and workload migration.

Summary

Oracle Cloud VPN and FastConnect are two ways to connect your on-premises network to Oracle Cloud infrastructure. VPN connects your on-premises VPN device to a VPN Connect service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, while FastConnect provides a dedicated, private connection to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure via a cloud provider. Both VPN and FastConnect ensure secure and reliable connectivity, enabling you to build and deploy hybrid cloud solutions, backup and replication, and migrate workloads with ease.
