This topic describes how to view the virtual private cloud (VPC) endpoints and the public endpoint of your streaming engine in the Lindorm console.
Prerequisites
The Lindorm streaming engine is activated. For more information, see Activate the streaming engine.
VPC and Internet
| Network type | Description |
|---|---|
| VPC | A VPC is a private network dedicated to your Alibaba Cloud account. VPCs are logically isolated from each other to provide high security and performance. When Lindorm-cli is deployed on your Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance, you can use Lindorm-cli to connect to your Lindorm instance over a VPC. This ensures high security and reduces network latency. |
| Internet | If you want to connect an on-premises device to a Lindorm instance over the Internet, you must apply for a public endpoint. You are not charged for traffic that is generated when you access the Lindorm instance over the Internet. However, the connection may be exposed to security risks. We recommend that you use a VPC to ensure higher security. |
Procedure
- Log on to the Lindorm console.
- In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region in which the instance is located.
- On the Instances page, click the ID of the instance that you want to manage or click Manage in the Actions column corresponding to the instance.
- In the left-side navigation pane, click Database Connections.
- Click the Stream Engine tab. On this tab, you can view the endpoints of the streaming engine that is activated for your Lindorm instance.
Note If you want to access the Lindorm streaming engine over the Internet, a public endpoint is required. To obtain the public endpoint, click Apply for Public Endpoint in the upper-right corner of the Stream Engine tab.VPC endpoint Example Description Lindorm Stream SQL Endpoint jdbc:streamsql:url=http://ld-bp17pwu1541ia****-proxy-stream.lindorm.rds.aliyuncs.com:30060 This endpoint is used when you use Lindorm-cli to connect to the Lindorm streaming engine. Lindorm Stream Kafka Endpoint ld-bp17pwu1541ia****-proxy-stream.lindorm.rds.aliyuncs.com:30080 This endpoint is used when you use an open source Apache Kafka client to connect to the Lindorm streaming engine.
