Please refer to the following topic in our docs for more information: <a href="https://forum.appian.com/suite/wiki/66/Cloud_VPN_Integration">forum.appian.com/.../Cloud_VPN_Integration</a><br />This will allow you to read / write data to and from a relational database hosted locally (through Appian, not through phpMyAdmin).<br /><br />Moreover, you can have that external database configured as a pre-defined data source to make it easier for application developers to connect to it as they build their process applications.
