Connect to a SQL Server through a proxy

  • Hello,

    i have an application which connects to of course an SQL Server. The SQL is a shared service, thus i don't manage it but i have access to the db the app is using as owner. Now, these two machines(SQL and App server) are on the cloud and i can have access only on the app server with RDP and i can install stuff there. I need a way to reach the SQL Server from an internet IP passing through the app server which is the only one i have control. The idea basically to use some kind of proxy to be installed on the app server.

    Now the question is, is doable? consider also that i need read only access on the tables and views of the db. Which software to use? Any feedback on this kind of configuration? What could go wrong?

     

    thank you

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
