Scenario Overview

CacheStore(DBaaS) connection scenario is a scenario where Bastion host (Virtual Server) and Database service are created, and the DB service is accessed through the Bastion host. To connect to CacheStore (DBaaS) stably in the Samsung Cloud Platform environment, it is necessary to create a Bastion host and use it for network connection.
