Peliqan allows you to securely connect to on prem (on premise) data sources such as locally installed databases (SQL Server, MySQL, Postgres etc.), on prem business applications and on prem servers using one of the following methods:

Scenario 1: IP Whitelisting

In this scenario, we assume you have an on-prem firewall, you open up a port on the firewall for access by Peliqan, and you whitelist the Peliqan IP addresses so that no one else can connect to the given port. More info:

IP whitelisting

Scenario 3: Peliqan VPN tunnel

Peliqan uses the VPN NetBird, a secure software-only VPN that establishes a peer to peer connection between your on-prem server and the Peliqan data cloud. Once the VPN tunnel is active, you can add e.g. a database connection in Peliqan, using the local IP address of your server.

Contact Peliqan Support if you want to set up an on-prem connection. Peliqan Support will provide you with a key, needed to set up the NetBird client on your server.

About NetBird

NetBird is an open-source, secure, peer-to-peer private network built on top of WireGuard. It enables encrypted connections between devices across different networks without the need for complex VPN setups or static IPs. Ideal for secure connectivity to internal services, NetBird simplifies private networking using a modern control plane.

How it works

NetBird uses a centralized management service (self-hosted or cloud) to coordinate peer connections and distribute WireGuard keys. Once connected, peers communicate directly using encrypted WireGuard tunnels.
