Connection Methods

DAS

You can connect to a GeminiDB Influx instance on a web-based console.

-

• Easy to use, secure, advanced, and intelligent
• By default, you have the permission of remote login. DAS is secure and convenient for connecting to instances.

Private network

Connect to an instance using a private IP address or load balancer address.

This method is suitable when your application is deployed on an ECS that is in the same region and VPC as your instance.

• To improve connection reliability and eliminate the impact of a single point of failure, the load balancer address is recommended.
• High security and performance
• If the ECS and GeminiDB Influx instance are in the same security group,

  they can communicate with each other by default. No security group rule needs to be configured.

• If they are in different security groups, configure security group rules for them, separately.
  • Configure inbound rules of a security group for GeminiDB Influx instances by following Configuring Security Group Rules.
  • The default security group rule allows all outbound data packets, so you do not need to configure a security rule for the ECS. If not all access from the ECS is allowed, you need to configure an outbound rule for the ECS.

Public network

You can connect to a GeminiDB Influx instance through an EIP.

This method is suitable when DB instances cannot be accessed over a private network. You can bind an EIP to an ECS (or a server on the public network) to access the instance.

• Low security
• For faster transmission and improved security, migrate your applications to an ECS that is in the same subnet as your instance and use a private IP address to access the instance.
• You need to purchase an EIP. For details, see Billing Overview.

Program code
