Overview

Overview

If you use a Microsoft Azure private virtual network (VNet), you can configure a private connection between your Azure account and
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
 using Azure Private Link.
To use Azure Private Link, you must purchase the appropriate SKU through Informatica. Azure Private Link communication works with Intelligent Data Management Cloud instances that are deployed on Microsoft Azure infrastructure
As of the November 2024 release, you can use Azure Private Link with the following services:
  • API Manager
  • Application Integration
  • B2B Gateway
  • Cloud Data Integration for PowerCenter (CDI-PC)
  • Data Governance and Catalog
  • Data Integration
    , excluding
    Data Integration
     Elastic
  • Data Marketplace
  • Data Profiling
  • Data Quality
  • Integration Hub
  • Data Ingestion and Replication
  • MDM SaaS services (
    Customer 360 SaaS
    ,
    Multidomain MDM SaaS
    ,
    Product 360 SaaS
    ,
    Reference 360
     Saas, and Supplier 360 SaaS)
  • Metadata Command Center
When you use Azure Private Link, the Secure Agent in your VNet communicates with
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
 securely through Azure Private Link instead of going over the public internet.
The following image shows an overview of the communication between your Azure account and
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
 when you use Azure Private Link:
For all services except
Application Integration
, communication between
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
 and the Secure Agent in your VNet is two-way. For
Application Integration
, communication is from
Application Integration
 to the Secure Agent only. For more information about using
Application Integration
 with Azure Private Link, see Using Application Integration with Azure Private Link.
To configure
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
 to work with Azure Private Link, complete the following steps:
  1. Open a support case with Informatica Global Customer Support to request access to
    Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
     using Azure Private Link.
  2. Set up an Azure virtual network and subnet if you don't already have one.
  3. Create a private endpoint in your Azure account.
  4. Create a private DNS zone and link it to your virtual network.
  5. Associate the private DNS zone with the private endpoint.
  6. Launch a virtual machine (VM) where the Secure Agent will be installed.
  7. Install a Secure Agent on the VM.
  8. Verify the IP address to ensure that you're connecting to
    Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
     using Azure Private Link.
The following sections in this guide provide details about each of these steps.

Is a private connection possible between the customer Azure tenant and IICS POD hosted on AWS?

Hi Saurabh, 

Thanks for reaching out! We're currently checking this with our development team and will get back to you.

Hi Saurabh,

We've confirmed with our development team that it is not possible to establish a PrivateLink connection across cloud providers.
