AWS instance types

OpenText™ Analytics Database supports a range of AWS instance types to deploy cluster hosts or MC hosts on AWS. See Supported AWS instance types for a complete list of supported instance types.

Amazon machine images

OpenText™ Analytics Database provides tested and pre-configured Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) to deploy cluster hosts or MC hosts on AWS. The AMI allows users to configure their own storage using the officially supported version of the database for AWS.

See Choose an AMI Operating System for a list of operating systems currently available in the AMIs.

Consider the following when using the AMI:

OpenText™ Analytics Database develops AMIs on a slightly different schedule than the product release schedule. The AMIs for the database releases are available sometime following the initial release of OpenText™ Analytics Database.
Each AMI is pre-configured with default resource limit settings.
Amazon does not support using 32-bit binaries on Amazon Linux 2.0 AMIs. Therefore, you cannot use the 32-bit client libraries on these AMIs.

IPv6 support

Vertica supports using IPv6 to identify nodes in the database cluster. However, AWS DNS resolution does not support IPv6. To have a cluster in AWS that uses IPv6, use the IPv6 IP addresses instead of using host names when installing Vertica and forming the cluster.
