Create VPC Network Resources
A VPC and subnets that comply with the network requirements are a prerequisite for creating a BYOC warehouse. You must prepare these resources first if they do not already exist.
Note Currently, the VeloDB warehouse only supports single-AZ deployment. We recommend provisioning two subnets—one public and one private. The VeloDB service will ultimately be deployed within the private subnet.
To create a VPC, subnets, and other VPC resources using the console
- Log into the AWS VPC console (opens in a new tab) as a user with administrator privileges.
- Select the AWS region that you will use for your VeloDB warehouse deployment.
- Click the Create VPC button.
- For Resources to create, choose VPC and more.
- Modify the following options and keep the default settings for others:
- Enter a value for the Name tag. (e.g. velodb-project)
- For IPv4 CIDR block, determine the starting IP and the size of your VPC.
- For Number of Availability Zones, choose 1.
- For Number of public subnets, choose 1.
- For Number of private subnets, choose 1.
- For NAT gateways, choose In 1 AZ.
- For VPC Endpoints, choose S3 Gateway. S3 Gateway can help reduce NAT gateway charges and improve security by accessing S3 directly from the VPC.
- Click Create VPC.
- Wait for the workflow to complete, and then click View VPC.
The following figures illustrate the VPC provisioning process.
