Configure Oracle SQL Developer to Connect to Database Cloud Service Using SSH

In the previous blog post, I have shown on how to create a new Oracle Database Cloud Service (DBCS) using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic environment.

In this blog post, I will show on how to configure Oracle SQL Developer tool to get connected to the DBCS service in the cloud.

By default the DBCS listener port (default value is 1521) is not exposed to the outside world so tools like SQL Developer cannot be used to get connected to the Database Cloud Service.

So how do we get connected to the Database to perform the usual basic activities such as creating tables etc?
