A Floating IP is a static public IPv4 address that can be assigned to a VM. It provides a stable entry point for inbound internet traffic regardless of VM restarts or replacements.
• Public IPv4 address — allocated when the resource is created; shown in status.publicIpV4
• Association — attach it to a VM via the VM's floatingIpId, or to a VPC as an outbound NAT address via the VPC's natFloatingIpId
• Hosting Provider — the provider on which the address is allocated
A Floating IP can be reassigned between VMs without changing the public address, enabling zero-downtime maintenance. It is billed while allocated, even if not attached.
