1Z0-1072-25 Question 85
Single answerYour organization needs reliable, high-bandwidth connectivity between its on-premises data center and an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure VCN. The workload is mission-critical and demands minimal latency and predictable performance without depending on the public internet. Which connectivity option would you recommend to satisfy these requirements?
- A
IPsec VPN
- B
OCI FastConnect
- C
NAT Gateway
- D
Service Gateway
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
For mission-critical workloads that demand low latency, dedicated throughput, and predictable performance, FastConnect is the recommended option. It provides a private, high-bandwidth path from your data center to OCI, avoiding the variability associated with public internet routing. For more details, consult Oracle's documentation on FastConnect vs. IPsec VPN to help determine which connectivity method best suits your organizational needs.
- A. Incorrect.
Option 1: IPsec VPN � While an IPsec VPN is encrypted and relatively simple to set up, its performance depends on the public internet, which can introduce latency and throughput variability. This makes it less ideal for mission-critical, high-bandwidth workloads.
- B. Correct.
Option 2: OCI FastConnect � This is the correct answer. FastConnect offers a dedicated private connection that supports higher and more consistent bandwidth compared to a VPN. It is designed for situations requiring stable, predictable performance and low latency between on-premises and an OCI VCN.
- C. Incorrect.
Option 3: NAT Gateway � A NAT Gateway is used to provide outbound internet access for private resources within a VCN. It does not establish a private or dedicated connection to on-premises data centers.
- D. Incorrect.
Option 4: Service Gateway � A Service Gateway allows private access to specific OCI services (such as Object Storage) without routing traffic over the public internet. It does not provide a dedicated path for on-premises connectivity.
