Endpoints

Standard and Enterprise plans

The Standard and Enterprise plans offer the choice of Public, Private, or both Public and Private endpoints.

Public network service endpoint is accessible from anywhere on the internet.
Private network service endpoint access traverses only the IBM Cloud backbone network, not the public internet.

Instance creation

At the time of instance creation, you can select your choice of endpoint from the Service Endpoints box on IBM Cloud.
