If you use an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), you can configure a private connection between your VPC and
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
using Amazon Web Services (AWS) PrivateLink.
To use AWS PrivateLink, you must purchase the appropriate SKU through Informatica. AWS PrivateLink communication works with Intelligent Data Management Cloud instances that are deployed on AWS infrastructure.
You can use AWS PrivateLink with the following services:
API Manager
Application Integration
Cloud Data Integration for PowerCenter (CDI-PC)
B2B Gateway
Data Governance and Catalog
Data Integration
Data Marketplace
Data Profiling
Data Quality
Integration Hub
Data Ingestion and Replication
(Databases, Files, and Streaming)
MDM SaaS services (
Customer 360 SaaS
,
Multidomain MDM SaaS
,
Product 360 SaaS
,
Reference 360
Saas, and Supplier 360 SaaS)
Metadata Command Center
For Advanced Data Integration, you can use AWS PrivateLink only on a private cluster on AWS. You can't use AWS PrivateLink on a local or self-service cluster, or on an
advanced cluster
in a serverless runtime environment.
When you use AWS PrivateLink, the Secure Agent in your VPC communicates with
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
securely through AWS PrivateLink instead of going over the public internet.
The following image shows an overview of the communication between your AWS account and
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
when you use AWS PrivateLink:
For all services except
Application Integration
, communication between
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
and the Secure Agent in your VPC is two-way. For
Application Integration
, communication is from
Application Integration
to the Secure Agent only. For more information about using
to work with AWS PrivateLink, complete the following steps:
Open a support case with Informatica Global Customer Support to request access to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
using AWS PrivateLink.
Create a VPC endpoint in your Amazon account.
Configure the networking rules on AWS.
Open the hosted zone and create a record for each
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
service that you use.
Optionally, set up a VPC endpoint for disaster recovery.
Verify the IP address to ensure that you're connecting to
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
using AWS PrivateLink.
If you use
Data Quality
or
Data Profiling
, provision an interface endpoint to enable private communication between the Secure Agent and the
Data Quality
/
Data Profiling
S3 storage bucket.
If you use Advanced Data Integration, perform additional configuration steps to use AWS PrivateLink.
If you use
Cloud Data Integration for PowerCenter (CDI-PC)
, provision an interface endpoint to enable private communication between the Secure Agent and the S3 storage bucket. Contact Informatica Global Customer Support for any support regarding S3 bucket.
The Secure Agent, the CDI-PC domain, and all corresponding nodes must be on the same VPC.
The following sections in this guide provide details about each of these steps.
