Deployment Guide: Ververica Cloud: Bring Your Own Cloud

This guide walks you through deploying Ververica Cloud: Bring Your Own Cloud on an Amazon EKS cluster. By the end of the guide, you will have a Ververica Agent installed and running on your cluster and be able to create new BYOC workspaces that use your own AWS environment.

info

Ververica recommends reviewing About BYOC before deploying Ververica Cloud: Bring Your Own Cloud. It covers several important factors for you to consider, including:

  • Is this the right option for your needs?
  • What are the core components of the BYOC framework
  • What is the security model and how can it help with a Zero Trust design?
  • What are the operational responsibilities for BYOC?

QuickStart​

  1. Learn how BYOC works.

    • Get a high-level understanding of how the BYOC Agent (Pyxis) communicates with Ververica Cloud.
    • Learn how the key components of the architecture work together.

  2. Complete the prerequisites.

    • Ensure your EKS cluster meets the minimum version, capacity, and operating system requirements.
    • Verify IMDSv1 is available on your worker nodes.
    • Whitelist (allow outbound traffic) to agent.ververica.cloud, app.ververica.cloud, registry.ververica.cloud, and cdn.ververica.cloud.
    • Assign IAM roles, permissions, and S3 bucket configurations.

  3. Create AWS resources.

    • Configure IAM roles, policies, and an S3 bucket for Flink artifacts using either an automated CloudFormation script or a manual setup.
    • Enable Kubernetes OIDC (IRSA) to manage the Ververica Agent.

  4. Install and configure the Ververica agent.

    • Link your Ververica account with AWS Marketplace and subscribe to the BYOC product.
    • Install the Ververica Agent (Pyxis) using Helm and verify its registration in the Ververica Portal.
    • Create a new BYOC workspace, and uninstall the Agent if needed.

Once you complete these steps, you are ready to run your Flink workloads in your own AWS environment while maintaining central control and visibility using Ververica Cloud: Bring Your Own Cloud.
