Public cloud environment checklist for Cloudera Operational Database

You must plan your cloud account requirements and resources before you create a Cloudera Operational Database. Cloudera Operational Database is deployed on the Public Cloud, and you must understand the public cloud account requirements before you deploy your Cloudera Operational Database instance.

Currently, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure are the supported public cloud environments. Before registering your AWS, Azure, or GCP environment in Cloudera, you must verify that your account has all the resources required by Cloudera.
You must register your AWS, Azure, or GCP environment in Cloudera before you create a Cloudera Operational Database. You must also ensure that you read and understand the AWS or Azure account requirements so that your public cloud account has all the resources required by Cloudera and that your Cloudera administrator has adequate permissions to configure the resources and services in AWS, Azure, or GCP.
note
- You must enable an appropriate entitlement to use Cloudera Operational Database on GCP.
- For AWS environments, Cloudera recommends you to use the EBS volumes as gp2 for better performance.
You must also configure your public cloud environment to ensure that you have assigned the correct policies and roles. See the related information for AWS, Azure, and GCP quickstarts that will help you set up your public cloud environment for use with Cloudera Operational Database.
