Fivetran Proxy provides a secure way to connect databases through outbound connections without opening inbound firewall ports. Installed behind the firewall, the proxy agent initiates communication with Fivetran, maintaining control and security. Benefits include easy setup with quick installation, compatibility with the high-volume agent, and simplified management compared to complex methods. It allows scheduling of data movement, establishes a TLS 1.3 WebSocket connection over port 443, and ensures encrypted, reliable transfers. Architectures support deployment directly on the database host or alongside the high-volume agent, offering flexible and secure integration.
