Network Connectivity

Ascend provides support for three network connectivity options that enable the cloud-based platform to connect to private/internal data sources (e.g. on-premise). All options are highly configurable, production-quality and are based on network security best practices (including SSH and/or VPN).

The options listed below are available to you based on your subscription tier.

All Customers

1. Reverse SSH - an SSH-based solution that enables you to establish an outgoing SSH tunnel from your network to the Ascend cloud platform, to allow Ascend to connect to the private/internal data sources you choose.

Customers with ENTERPRISE Subscription Tier

2. SSH Gateway - an SSH-based solution that enables the Ascend cloud platform to connect to private resources through a bastion host on your network.
3. Secure VPN Access - a highly configurable, production quality IKEv1 and IKEv2 IPsec-based VPN solution.

If you have connectivity needs that are not addressed by the options above, please contact us for assistance.
