Oracle Services Network Configuration and Access

You can connect the user VPC of Samsung Cloud Platform with the VCN (Virtual Cloud Network) in Samsung Cloud Platform Dedicated Oracle Cloud to use Oracle Services. To connect a VPC with a VCN in Oracle Cloud, you must configure the Oracle Services network and then request a dedicated uplink for Oracle Services. When the Oracle Services network configuration and uplink request are completed, the connection between Samsung Cloud Platform VPC - TGW - dedicated line segment - Oracle Cloud DRG - VCN is completed, allowing various hybrid cloud configurations such as connecting the user’s VM in the VPC environment to the DB in the Oracle Cloud VCN.

Request Oracle Services network configuration

When using Samsung Cloud Platform Dedicated Oracle Cloud, you must create and configure the required network resources for the user. This configuration request uses the user’s input data with the Oracle Cloud API to provide a service provisioning role that creates and deploys Oracle Cloud network services, enabling users to easily use Oracle software such as Oracle DBCS (Database Cloud Service) and ExaCS (Exadata Cloud Service).

To request the network configuration of Oracle Services, follow these steps.

1. Click the All Services > Hybrid Cloud > Oracle Services menu. 1. Go to the Service Home page of Oracle Services.
2. On the Service Home page, click the Oracle Services menu. 2. Navigate to the Oracle Services List page.
3. On the Oracle Services List page, click the resource to view detailed information. 3. Navigate to the Oracle Services Details page.
4. On the Oracle Services Details page, click the edit icon of Oracle Services NW Configuration. 4. Oracle Services Network Configuration Edit window appears.
5. Enter or select detailed information in the Oracle Services Network Configuration Edit window and click OK.

Oracle Services network configuration order

When you request an Oracle Services network configuration, it attempts to provision and automatically configure the network service using the values entered by the user. If users need to update after provisioning, they can directly update the configurable settings in the Oracle Cloud web console after creation.

1. Create an Oracle Cloud VCN.
2. Create an Oracle Cloud DRG.
   • DRG(Dynamic Routing Gateway) is an optional virtual router that can be added to a VCN, and it serves a role similar to the Samsung Cloud Platform Transit Gateway. * This gateway provides a private network traffic path between the VCN and the on‑premises network.
3. Connect the DRG to the VCN.
4. Enable the VCN’s “Use DNS Hostnames” option.
5. After defining FastConnect, create a Virtual Circuit for logical allocation.
   • FastConnect is a dedicated line product for Oracle Cloud that serves a role similar to Samsung Cloud Platform Direct Connect.
   • When defining FastConnect, set it to the same bandwidth as the corresponding TGW’s bandwidth.
6. Create a Private Subnet within the VCN.
7. Enable the “Use DNS Hostnames” option for the subnet.
8. Add the DRG to the VCN Route Table with 0.0.0.0.
   • The default input value of DRG is 0.0.0.0.
9. Configure user logging.
   • Create the log group first, then configure logging.

Request to connect Samsung Cloud Platform VPC with Oracle Services

To provide Oracle Service, a connection as shown below has been established between Samsung Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud.

• A common network is configured for service/authentication integration and console connection between Samsung Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud.
• Through the Samsung Cloud Platform Oracle product, you configure a per‑user service connection network, and based on the physical network link between Samsung Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud, you connect the Samsung Cloud Platform VPC to the Oracle Cloud VCN.
• Workloads configured in Oracle Cloud (e.g. * Computing, DB instance) can be utilized using a pre-configured Cross network between Samsung Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud.
• Through Samsung Cloud Platform TGW and Direct Connect routing configuration, customers can directly access and use databases configured in Oracle Cloud even in network environments connected via Direct Connect or TGW Uplink.

• A single connection architecture between Samsung Cloud Platform and Oracle Cloud can be implemented via TGW peering and TGW-to-TGW connections, and can be commonly used across multiple projects and VPCs. * However, when used jointly, performance and bandwidth considerations are required.
• The TGW of Samsung Cloud Platform and the DRG of Oracle Cloud must have a 1:1 connection architecture.
  • It is possible to share a single connection architecture across multiple projects and VPCs through peering.
  • However, it is not possible to peer multiple Samsung Cloud Platform VPCs using a single Oracle Cloud DRG.

Apply for Oracle Services Uplink line
