Configuring edge node on AWS for COD

You must configure an edge node on Amazon AWS to run applications using Apache HBase Java API or the Apache Phoenix thick JDBC driver. When configuring an edge node, you have to configure a networking line-of-sight, DNS, and Kerberos.

By default, in Cloudera Operational Database (COD), your database is not accessible to the public internet, both due to security groups on the subnets of the VPC which the database is deployed into as well as ingress rules of the VPC itself.

A correctly configured edge node can run applications using the Apache HBase Java API or the Apache Phoenix thick JDBC driver.
