winform(C#) connect remote oracle database

Question

I meet a problem in developing winform (C#) project. How can the client from one computer of the local network A connect the oracle database which is in one computer of network B (A and B are not in the same local network).

Answer 1

Possible solutions :

• Setting up a vpn to access the network where the Oracle database is hosted.
• Setting up ssh (similar to vpn) ( http://www.akadia.com/services/ssh_connect_tunnels.html )
• Directly expose the server and port Oracle is running on to the internet, you'll need a static ip for this to work (not recommended).
• Setting up a connection manager on a dmz server
