Covers ingress private endpoints (AWS PrivateLink, GCP Private Service Connect, Azure Private Link), egress private endpoints for outbound connections to external services, and VPC peering.

When to Use This Skill

• Setting up private endpoints to eliminate public internet exposure for database connections
• Configuring egress private endpoints for CDC changefeeds to Confluent Kafka or other external services
• Establishing VPC peering between a CockroachDB Cloud cluster and application VPCs
• Troubleshooting DNS resolution issues with private endpoints
• Resolving "stuck pending" or connection failure errors with private endpoints
• Automating private connectivity setup with Terraform
