To create an MSSQL Server database with public access, configure the following Tenant setting to allow public network access for databases and cache servers. If the database does not need public access, skip this step and create an MSSQL Server database.
From the DuploCloud Portal, navigate to Administrator -> Tenants.
Select the Tenant from the NAME column.
Select the Settings tab, and click Add. The Add Tenant Feature pane displays.
From the Select Feature list box, select Allow Public Network Access for Databases and Cache Servers.

From the Public Access list box, select Enabled or Disabled. If Enabled is not available, complete the steps above under Prerequisites to enable this option.
Click Submit. The MSSQL Server database is created.
A private endpoint is a network interface that connects you privately and securely to your MSSQL Server database. This ensures that the traffic between your virtual network and the MSSQL database travels entirely without using the public internet.
Select the Tenant from the Tenant list box.
In the DuploCloud Portal, navigate to Cloud Services -> Database -> MSSQLServer.
Select the MSSQL Server database from the NAME column.

Click Submit. The private endpoint is created and accessible via the selected subnet.
Select the Tenant from the Tenant list box.
In the DuploCloud Portal, navigate to Cloud Services -> Database -> MSSQLServer.
Select the MSSQL Server database from the NAME column.
Select the Databases tab to view the databases and details.
