Summary
Details
Scale a NAT gateway to meet the demand of a dynamic workload
Impact: Medium Category: Scalability
APRL GUID: 4281631c-3d19-4994-8d96-084c2a51a534
Description:
NAT Gateway provides 64,512 SNAT ports per public IP address and supports up to 16 public IP addresses. Monitor "Total SNAT connection count" metric to determine if you're nearing the connection limit of NAT gateway. You can scale the NAT gateway by adding more public IP addresses.
Potential Benefits:
Enhances reliability and scalability

Consider zonal NAT gateway deployment for zone isolation scenarios
Impact: Medium Category: High Availability
APRL GUID: 419df1ea-336b-460a-b6b2-fefe2588fcef
Description:
A zonal promise for zone isolation scenarios exists when a virtual machine instance using a NAT gateway resource is in the same zone as the NAT gateway resource and its public IP addresses. The pattern you want to use for zone isolation is creating a "zonal stack" per availability zone.
Potential Benefits:
Enhances reliability and scalability
