OpenText Analytics Database 26.2.x – Set up the database on the cloud

Setup: OpenText Analytics Database on Amazon Web Services

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

OpenText™ Analytics Database clusters on AWS can operate on EC2 instances automatically provisioned using a CloudFormation Template (CFT), or manually deployed using Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). For information about these deployment methods, see Deploy OpenText Analytics Database using CloudFormation templates and Manually deploy OpenText Analytics Database on AWS.

You can deploy the database on AWS running in either Enterprise Mode or Eon Mode. The differences between these two modes lay in their architecture, deployment, and scalability:

Enterprise Mode stores data locally on the nodes in the database.
Eon Mode stores its data in an S3 bucket.

Eon Mode separates the computational processes from the communal storage layer of your database. This separation lets you elastically vary the number of nodes in your database cluster to adjust to varying workloads.

OpenText™ Analytics Database also supports the following AWS features:

Enhanced Networking: OpenText™ Analytics Database recommends that you use the AWS enhanced networking for optimal performance. For more information, see Enabling Enhanced Networking on Linux Instances in a VPC in the AWS documentation.
Command Line Interface: Use the Amazon command-line Interface (CLI) with your OpenText™ Analytics Database AMIs. For more information, see What Is the AWS Command Line Interface?.
Elastic Load Balancing: Use elastic load balancing (ELB) for queries up to one hour. When enabling ELB, configure the timer to 3600 seconds. For more information see Elastic Load Balancing in the AWS documentation.

For more information about Amazon cluster instances and their limitations, see the Amazon documentation.

Vertica supports automatic deployment on Azure through the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, or manual installation and deployment on Azure VMs.

You can deploy a Vertica database on the Microsoft Azure Cloud running in either Enterprise Mode or Eon Mode. In Eon Mode, Vertica stores its data communally using Azure block blob storage.

This section explains how to deploy a Vertica database to Microsoft Azure.

Vertica supports automatic deployment on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) through the Google Cloud Launcher, or manual installation and deployment on GCP machines.

You can deploy a Vertica database on GCP running in either Enterprise Mode or Eon Mode. In Eon Mode, Vertica stores its data communally using Google Cloud Storage (GCS).

This section explains how to deploy a Vertica database to GCP.
