Oracle End user connection in Kubernetes oracle db setup

Hi,
Oracle database installation in kubernetes setup. How the end user connect to oracle database?
Normally end user install oracle client in local machine with the tnsnames.ora entry connect the host name and port through database.

In Kubernetes oracle setup software/image container will run on pod.

Pod will fails and restart automatically so service concept using. How the end user connect throught the database sqlplus scott/*****@???

Thanks & Regards,
Rajesh. D

Clients should not connect to Pods directly, but to a service. The service will have a static dns entry and IP address and redirect traffic to the backing pod.

Sort of off subject, but something that might help - A Kubernetes Oracle Operator was just released. They have some tutorials and such in the repo: GoogleCloudPlatform/elcarro-oracle-operator.

Hey, which cloud provider did you do it with? I’m trying to implement Oracle DB12.1 with GKE and it starts throwing errors after getting mounted.
