Use your own VPC

If you choose to use your own VPC, verify that it meets the minimum requirements and review Cloudera's recommended setup.

VPCs can be created and managed from the VPC console on AWS. For instructions on how to create a new VPC on AWS, refer to Create and configure your VPC in the AWS documentation.

Verify that your VPC meets the following requirements and recommendations:

Minimum requirements

Cloudera's recommended setup

Provision two subnets, each in a different Availability Zone (AZ).

If you do not require a public endpoint, use two private subnets.
If you require a public endpoint, use one private subnet and one public subnet.

Private subnets should have routable IPs over your internal VPN. If IPs are not routable, private DataFlow endpoints must be accessed via a SOCKS. This is not recommended.

Tag the VPC and the subnets as shared so that Kubernetes can find them. Also, for load balancers to be able to choose the subnets correctly, you must tag either the private or public subnets.

A tag in AWS consists of a key and a value.

To tag private subnets, enter kubernetes.io/role/internal-elb for the key and 1 for the value.
To tag public subnets, enter kubernetes.io/role/elb for the key and 1 for the value.
