AWS and Azure Multi-AZ for environments and Data Lakes

By default, Cloudera provisions Data Lake, FreeIPA, and Data Hubs in a single AWS or Azure availability zone (AZ). You can choose to deploy them across multiple availability zones (multi-AZ). It is possible to enable it for all the components or a few components.

You can choose to deploy your Cloudera environment (FreeIPA and Data Lake) and Data Hubs across multiple subnets and availability zones, where you can deploy each of these components across three or more availability zones to provide high availability and fault tolerance. The following diagram illustrates this scenario where each of the components (FreeIPA, Data Lake, and Data Hubs) are deployed across multiple subnets and multiple availability zones (eu-central-1a, eu-central-1b, and eu-central-1c):
The image shows a Cloudera environment deployment where the Cloudera components FreeIPA, Data Lake, and Data Hubs are deployed across multiple subnets and multiple availability zones. For example, eu-central-1a, eu-central-1b, and eu-central-1c.
