Connect to H2O Managed Cloud using PrivateLink

This tutorial guides you through the process of connecting your private AWS account to your H2O Managed Cloud environment using AWS PrivateLink.

Before you begin​

  • A private AWS account located in the same region as your H2O Managed Cloud environment

  • Ensure that you have created all the necessary resources needed in your private AWS account (VPC, subnets, security groups etc.)

  1. Reach out to your H2O representative and request to connect your private AWS account to your H2O Managed Cloud environment. In the request, also include the account number for your private AWS account.

  2. You will receive from H2O a CloudFormation template that will create all the necessary resources in your private AWS account (VPC endpoints and Route53 private DNS records). The CloudFormation will expect the following inputs:

    1. VPC ID - in the VPC the VPC endpoints will be created. For more information, see VPC endpoints in the AWS documentation.

    2. Security group ID - This security group should allow inbound traffic on port 443 from any resource you want connected to your H2O Managed Cloud environment, and the security group should also allow outbound traffic on port 443 to itself. This security group will be set as the default security group for the newly created VPC endpoint. For more information, see Security groups in the AWS documentation.
