Getting Started on AWS

You can use the HEAVY.AI AWS AMI (Amazon Web Services Amazon Machine Image) to try HeavyDB and Heavy Immerse in the cloud. Perform visual analytics with the included New York Taxi database, or import and explore your own data.
Many options are available when deploying an AWS AMI. These instructions skip to the specific tasks you must perform to deploy a sample environment.

Using HEAVY.AI Immerse on Your AWS Instance
To connect to Heavy Immerse, you need your Public IP address and Instance ID for the instance you created. You can find these values on the Description tab for your instance.
To connect to Heavy Immerse:
1.Point your Internet browser to the public IP address for your instance, on port 6273. For example, for public IP 54.83.211.182, you would use the URL https://54.83.211.182:6273.
2.If you receive an error message stating that the connection is not private, follow the prompts onscreen to click through to the unsecured website. To secure your site, see Tips for Securing Your EC2 Instance.
1.Enter the USERNAME (admin), PASSWORD ( {Instance ID} ), and DATABASE (heavyai). If you are using the BYOL version, enter you license key in the key field and click Apply.
3.Click Connect.
4.On the Dashboards page, click NYC Taxi Rides. Explore and filter the chart information on the NYC Taxis Dashboard.

Importing Your Own Data
Working with your own familiar dataset makes it easier to see the advantages of HEAVY.AI processing speed and data visualization.
To import your own data to Heavy Immerse:
1.Export your data from your current datastore as a comma-separated value (CSV) or tab-separated value (TSV) file. HEAVY.AI supports Latin-1 ASCII format and UTF-8. If you want to load data with another encoding (for example, UTF-16), convert the data to UTF-8 before loading it to HEAVY.AI.
2.Point your Internet browser to the public IP address for your instance, on port 6273. For example, for public IP 54.83.211.182, you would use the URL https://54.83.211.182:6273.
3.Enter the USERNAME (admin) and PASSWORD ( {instance ID} ). If you are using the BYOL version, enter you license key in the key field and click Apply.
4.Click Connect.
5.Click Data Manager, and then click Import Data.
6.Drag your data file onto the table importer page, or use the directory selector.
7.Click Import Files.
8.Verify the column names and datatypes. Edit them if needed.
9.Enter a Name for your table.
10.Click Save Table.
11.Click Connect to Table.
12.On the New Dashboard page, click Add Chart.
13.Choose a chart type.
14.Add dimensions and measures as required.
15.Click Apply.
16.Enter a Name for your dashboard.
17.Click Save.

Accessing Your HEAVY.AI Instance Using SSH
Follow these instructions to connect to your instance using SSH from MacOS or Linux. For information on connecting from Windows, see Connecting to Your Linux Instance from Windows Using PuTTY.
1.Open a terminal window.
2.Locate your private key file (for example, MyKey.pem). The wizard automatically detects the key you used to launch the instance.
3.Your key must not be publicly viewable for SSH to work. Use this command to change permissions, if needed:
4.Connect to your instance using its Public DNS. The default user name is centos or ubuntu, depending on the version you are using. For example:
1
ssh -i MyKey.pem [email protected]
Copied!
5.Use the following command to run the heavysql SQL command-line utility on HeavyDB. The default user is admin and the default password is { Instance ID }:
