SQL Developer SSH Connections In Depth

Available now: A 29-page white paper on SQL Developer SSH Connections that explains in detail how SSH connections should be configured between your desktop/laptop and your organization’s database!

The vast majority of explanations out on the internet of how to configure SSH connections between Oracle SQL Developer and an Oracle Database use incredibly simplistic explanations, often using the oracle os account as the ssh user (absolutely a worst practice!), and not including important things like how firewalls will impact connections, how your ssh server should be configured, etc.

I wrote a 29-page white paper which has been published on the Insum.ca website. It covers the above and more in exacting detail. If you click the link above you’ll be taken to a description of the white paper and then to a page where you’ll be able to download it after supplying a name and email (a fair trade for the amount of time and effort I put into the white paper…).

Note: The image above is from the white paper and is used for explanation purposes only… None of those things actually exist except for the WordPress external firewall that protects just this blog, or, actually, all the blogs at WordPress.com.
