Create Oracle Cloud Database Connection in Jdeveloper 12.2.1

While doing development on J2EE and ADF very often it is needed to create Oracle Database Connection from Jdeveloper. Jdeveloper provides a wonderful easy window to create and manage multiple Database Connections.

Since the environments have started to move to Cloud much often it is required to create Database Connection for the Oracle Database which is hosted on Oracle Database Cloud Service (DBCS).

There was no way to create SSH Tunnel in Jdeveloper and one has to tunnel the traffic using Putty or SSH command and then use the localhost in jdeveloper database connection window to create successful connection to Database on Cloud.

Jdeveloper 12.2.1 solved this problem by providing a very nice SSH Tunnel window in Database Connections Set up. This SSH Tunnel Configuration can be used to do configure the tunnel and use SSH Public key and user to create the connection.

Below is the process for creating a successful Database Cloud Instance connection from Jdeveloper 12.2.1

On clicking + sign for adding new connection, below window pops up.
