![]() ![]() To determine if the instance is running, you will see a similar page like the one below where it shows the instance being initialized.Ĭlick on the instance ID to see the details: The launch status page indicates if the instance is running or not Then click ‘Launch Instance’ to start running the instance remotely: Creating a key pair, downloading it locally, and launching the instance Next, click ‘Download Key Pair’ and save it in a secure location on your local computer. You can also choose ‘Proceed without a key pair,’ but we recommend that you secure the instance with a key. ’ You may name your key accordingly or use an existing key if you have one. In this tutorial we will create a new key named ‘timescale. Next, you will be brought to the key pair page where we will encrypt and decrypt login information for the remote instance. Upon a final check, click on ‘Launch’: Reviewing our AMI details before we launch the instance Since we are not doing any performance testing, it is best to select the minimal configuration machine settings, with the security set to default. For this tutorial we are using Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS and have the type set to t2.micro. Now we’re on the last and final step, where we review the AMI details before launching the instance. 1 for the WAL : GP2, 350 GB (Even though the WAL only needs ~10GB, we recommend a larger volume size for the higher IOPS)īut for the purpose of this tutorial, we will select the ‘t2.micro’ instance and click ‘Review and Launch’ to jump ahead to the final step. (For more information, please see the expected throughput for each type, here.) In addition, in production we’d recommend 2 EBS volumes: We recommend this machine size because the inserts are a high-disk-throughput operation and so the expected throughput of the machine is important. Note: In a production environment we’d recommend running a R4.4xlarge. ( See a list of Timescale Linux distributions here. We will select the ‘Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS’ image or later as it aligns with one of TimescaleDB’s Linux distributions at the time of writing. ![]() Next select ‘EC2’: Finding ‘EC2’ - under the ‘Services’ tabĬlick on ‘Launch Instance’ to view the Amazon Machine Image (AMI): Launching the ‘EC2’ instance to view the AMI On the top left, select the ‘Services’ tab and a panel of AWS services will be provided. You should see a similar page as the one below: The AWS console! Enter the required credentials and access your AWS console. Let’s get started! Getting up and running with AWS In this post, we will walk you through how to set up TimescaleDB on Amazon Web Services (AWS). It speaks “full SQL” and is correspondingly easy to use like a traditional relational database, yet scales in ways previously reserved for NoSQL databases. TimescaleDB is an open-source scalable SQL database built for time-series data, optimized for fast ingest and complex queries. A walkthrough with hardware sizing recommendations ![]()
