Shared Network and Shared ressources

[Demonium]

Hello,
I'm coming here with a question, I plan to install cloudstack but need confirmation about a special requirement.
I see shared ressource is available for all domain created. But this is my need: I want to place in a shared network a shared ressource like a database or tools like gitlab or any type of ressource to avoid duplicate it in isolated network.

So this is my question: if I install a database, does other isolated network can access it from virtual machine?

Thanks in advance.

@Demonium , you want to create a vm in shared network and make it accessible to a vm running in isolated network ?

Hello kiranchavala,
Vm or baremetal server indeed
Even it ressource in share network can access Vm in other domain

@Demonium
it highly depends on how you configure the routers (not ACS networks)

if you configure the gateway of shared network on the upstream router, and it has route to the public IP range, the vm on isolated networks can access vms on shared network directly.

vm in isolated network -> VR of isolated network -> gateway of public Ip range -> gateway of shared networks -> vm on shared networks
