Architecture of the support for PrivateLink with Talend
PrivateLink enables a highly secured network between Talend Cloud and your AWS VPCs.
Support for AWS PrivateLink is available in all Talend Cloud regions.
The communication between Talend Cloud and your
VPCs does not use the public Internet but goes through PrivateLink connections.
Applications such as Talend Studio and
Talend Remote Engine
can be installed either in your on-premises network or on your VPCs. This approach largely
reduces the exposure risk.
Information noteTip: The region-agnostic services running on
*.central.cloud.talend.com use public DNS for the only purpose of
transferring telemetry data. This transfer neither impacts the optimal functioning of
Talend Remote Engine nor
increases exposure risk.
PrivateLink is generally supported by Talend products, from the graphical applications to the API services.
