Using Azure Private Link
Note
Azure Private Link is supported only on Striim Cloud on Azure (Enterprise and Mission Critical). Your Striim Cloud bill can increase when you enable Azure Private Link as a result of increased compute and data transfer costs. For details, contact your Striim account representative.
Azure Private Link is a Microsoft Azure service that enables secure, private connectivity between virtual networks (VNets) and Azure services or on-premises resources. Private Link uses the Microsoft backbone network, ensuring traffic stays off the public internet.
Striim can connect with Microsoft Azure services using private endpoints in Azure. You can also connect with on-premise databases that are connected to Azure using Private Link. For procedures for using Azure private endpoints for managed or self-managed services, see:
You can also use private networking with a Striim Forwarding Agent. This connectivity option may be appropriate when the customer does not want the Striim service to read directly from a database by initiating the network traffic. You may want to use an agent to push traffic to the Striim service. See:
