Update Allowlists Before or After Upgrade

After this upgrade, the ingress and egress IP addresses for Oracle Analytics Cloud on Gen 2 are different to the IP addresses that you're using for Oracle Analytics Cloud on Gen 1. If you currently include IP address information for your Oracle Analytics Cloud instance on Gen 1 in any allowlists, you must update these allowlists because your upgraded Oracle Analytics Cloud instance on Gen 2 has different IP address information.

  • Ingress scenarios: Traffic originating from a customer network that's destined for Oracle Analytics Cloud. For example, users who access Oracle Analytics Cloud from their browser, Remote Data Gateway agents accessing Oracle Analytics Cloud, or automation scripts running on the customer network accessing Oracle Analytics Cloud. Ingress traffic connects to Oracle Analytics Cloud through the IP Address.

  • Egress scenarios: Traffic originating from Oracle Analytics Cloud that's destined for a customer network. For example, customer data sources that you want Oracle Analytics Cloud to connect to through the Gateway IP Address.

Discover Oracle Analytics Cloud on Gen 2 IP Address Information Before Upgrade

You don't need to wait until after the upgrade to update your allowlists. Oracle locks your upgrade schedule two weeks before the upgrade date and once locked, the new IP address information is displayed on the View Upgrade Summary page.

When the upgrade status for your Oracle Analytics Cloud instance on Gen 1 changes to Scheduled Locked, click the menu for the instance and then select View Upgrade Summary to find the new IP information.

Discover Oracle Analytics Cloud on Gen 2 IP Address Information After Upgrade

After the upgrade, the same IP address information is available from the Additional Details page (for your Oracle Analytics Cloud instance on Gen 2) in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. See Find the IP Address or Host Name of Your Oracle Analytics Cloud Instance.

Update Allowlists

(Only required if you currently allowlist your Oracle Analytics Cloud instance on Gen 1.)

The way you allowlist or set up security rules that allow traffic in or out, depends on the types of data sources that your Oracle Analytics Cloud connects to. The exact steps will be different for each data source. Here are some common scenarios:
