Lightup Hybrid
Setup guide for Lightup Hybrid
Review details of the Lightup Hybrid deployment model.
Sign up for an account
Sign up for a Lightup Hybrid trial at https://signup.lightup.ai.
You will receive a tla
identifying your account, and a bootstrap token
. You will need those to bootstrap your dataplane environment so that it can be managed by Lightup.
Create a VM
Create a virtual machine (VM) in your cloud environment or on-premise virtual compute environment with the following specifications:
- CPU and memory dimensioning similar to AWS EC2 r5.2xlarge (8 vCPUs, 64GB memory)
- Persistent, flat, unpartitioned hard disk capacity (EBS or similar) of 200GB of more
- Ubuntu 20.04 or RHEL8 or RHEL7
- Access to the data warehouses to be monitored
- SSH access, including the private SSH key
Set up Postgres Server 14
You need to prepare a Postgres instance to support the Lightup app, with the following minimum capabilities:
- 4 CPUs, 32GB memory
- Persistent hard disk capacity of 200GB of more
- Access to the data warehouses to be monitored
- Snapshots enabled for the Postgres instance
Regular Postgres snapshots
Take snapshots of your instance on a regular basis, for recovery purposes in the case of any issues that render the Postgres instance unrecoverable.
When your Postgres instance is ready, log in and complete the preparations:
- Create three databases: adb, udb, sdb.
- In each db:
- Set max_connection >= 500.
- Run the following code:
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_stat_statements;
SELECT * FROM pg_stat_statements LIMIT 1;
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS uuid-ossp;
SELECT * FROM uuid-ossp LIMIT 1;
Bootstrap the Lightup data plane
- SSH into the VM.
- Make sure
curl
is installed. - Run the following command, using the tla and token values you received in email:
curl -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -L https://s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/www.lightup.ai/launch_lightup.sh | LIGHTUP_TLA=<tla> LIGHTUP_TOKEN=<token> bash -s install
- Wait for about 10 minutes, then go to https://app.tla.lightup.ai (using the tla value from your email).
- Log in to the Lightup app to get started.
