I have a VPS with Google Cloud Compute Engine which I can reach through an external IP. Next to my external IP I can reach my VPS through: 122.xx.xx.34.bc.googleusercontent.com
Is Google also offering an option to reach your website through NAME.bc.googleusercontent.com or something different than an IP.
I don't want use cheap domain name or free domain name as .tk
You can use any domain name to reach your VM instance that you run on Google Compute Engine. To do it follow steps below:
register domain name at any domain name registrar
set up DNS servers for your domain name (usually DNS hosting service provided by domain name registrar)
reserve external static IP for your VM (optional, but could be helpful)
create A record that point to external IP of your VM
wait 24-72 hours for propagating domain names
reach you service via domain name like https://domain.name
In addition, you can register your domain name at Google Domains and use Google Cloud DNS as DNS service for your domain.
You're not able to use NAME.bc.googleusercontent.com because 122.xx.xx.34.bc.googleusercontent.com is a PTR record.

I cannot figure out how to provide a DNS name to an IP address in Oracle cloud. Did not find a documentation. Went through the portal settings and some CLI documentation around networking. But did not find any.
It is quite straightforward in Azure. As the above screenshot shows.
Can anyone point me in right direction?
The hostname you provide at instance creation along with the subnet domain name becomes the instance's fully qualified domain name (FQDN). You can find more details in this chapter of the documentation: DNS in Your Virtual Cloud Network
In case of the Load Balancer's public IP, you can associate the public IP address with a friendly DNS name through any DNS vendor. You may also create and manage your DNS Zones within OCI Domain Name System, but you still need to register your domain name at a 3rd party DNS vendor. For more details on OCI DNS service, please see the DNS Service documentation.
I have a Python application which has been deployed to openshift.
I am using an external REST service in my application. In order to use this service, the developers of the REST service have to whitelist my IP because a Firewall blocks unauthorized IP addresses.
How can I find the external IP of my application? How can I find it in openshift? I tried a few OC commands, but I am not sure if I have to get the IP of the pod or the service.
Out of the box the traffic from internal cluster components will appear to external infrastructure like they are coming from whichever OpenShift compute host their pods are currently scheduled on.
Information on internal cluster networking and how traffic traverses from a process running inside a pod to the external network can be found at SDN: Packet Flow.
In your case you could have the external application whitelist all of the ip addresses of the compute hosts that are expected to run your application pods.
Alternately you could set up an EgressIP. This will cause all traffic originating from a specific OpenShift project to appear as if it is originating from a single ip address. You could then have your external application whitelist the EgressIP address.
Documentation for configuring EgressIP can be found in the official documentation under Enabling Static IPs for External Project Traffic
What you are searching for is the external IP of the Service. A Service acts as a load balancer for your pods but by default it only has a cluster-wide IP address. If you need a URL to access it from the outside, you can create a Route. For your purpose where you need an actual external IP address, you can assign the Service an external IP manually. Information on how to do this can be found in the official OpenShift Docs.
I have a need to communicate from services (hosted in azure service fabric) to communicate with our on-premises resources. I would like all outgoing traffic from azure to have a static ip address so that on-premises network team can create a firewall incoming firewall rule based on this static ip address.
Since the service(s) hosted in service fabric can move from node to node (without user's intervention) and auto-scale feature can add new nodes or tear down existing nodes, I am guessing I have to use something with configuration step. So I would like to know following:
1) What needs to be modified in the fabric cluster so that all outgoing traffic has static ip address?
2) How do I modify it at configuration step so that I don't worry about node to node switch as well as auto-scale feature?
All nodes get the same outbound IP address, the same public IP that is assigned to your cluster/load balances in Azure. You can specify the public IP address by using an ARM template to deploy your cluster, you specify a name of the public IP (and that public IP is assigned to your subscription and is then referenced in the ARM template for the cluster).
We have 8 websites and 5 of them are small. I would like to host those 5 website in same instance but their ip must be same and static. I couldn't find a way how to allocate a static ip for each of them and how to host them in a single instance. They are PHP. Their db's are hosted in Google SQL.
Per the Google Compute Engine docs on static IP addresses:
An instance can have only one external IP address. If it already has an external IP address, you must first remove that address by deleting the old access configuration, then adding a new access configuration with the new external IP address.
That said, you don't need to have a separate static IP address per website—you can serve an arbitrary number of sites from a single VM by using a feature such as Apache virtual hosts which let you serve a different site depending on the hostname that is requested by the user.
This can be possible using Protocol Forwarding.
You can have different IP addresses for each website while using single Virtual Machine.
I had successfully hosted my 3 sites using method in past. If you need, I can write up a detail explanation on some blog.
I am running a website in Google Compute Engine and configured a DNS zone and an A record to point to the IP address where my web-server runs. In my domain registrar (GoDaddy), I changed name-servers to point to Google name servers.
I can browse to the website without issues, but it show the IP address of the server instead of domain name. How can I change that to show domain name such as www.example.com instead?
I have a website hosted in GCE running under a Linux machine Apache Server. I created an A record in my DNS pointing to the external IP address of the server. When I access the link the subdomain name is not replaced by the IP. I do not believe your issue is particularly related to Compute Engine.
Particularly if you are using WordPress you will need to change some configuration files as stated in
http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browser-displaying-ip-instead-of-domain-name
The below solution worked for me,
GCP set IP Address as site URL when you deploy WordPress on google cloud.
Please change it to your domain name,
WordPress Admin Panel >> Settings >> Site URL (& WordPress URL as
well) >> add your domain name into textbox
