Private Cloud Setup

Did you just purchase an Private Cloud license with us? Here's a helpful guide to get you started with your Private Cloud deployment!

Below is the requisite information for instantiating a Corellium Private Cloud (CPC) instance in your AWS environment. Upon purchase of your Private Cloud license, you will receive the supporting scripts referenced below.

Private Cloud Diagram

Prerequisites​

Before creating your Corellium Private Cloud instance, you must have a VPC available that meets the requirements for CPC. See the VPC Guide for more information on how to configure the VPC.

Corellium Private Cloud requires a Graviton 4 (c8g.metal-24xl) EC2 instance type, so you will need to ensure that the target region and availability zone have the c8g.metal-24xl instance type available.

Files Portal​

Login to your Corellium Customer Files Portal to download the Corellium Private Cloud installer package to your local filesystem. You will also need an AWS S3 bucket available to store the package file required to instantiate the CPC instance. You can use the provided s3_upload.sh script to create the S3 bucket (if it doesn't exist) and upload the package file to the bucket.

Usage​

To create the Corellium Private Cloud instance, run the create_private_cloud_instance.sh script provided. To see all of the options available, run:

./create_private_cloud_instance.sh --help
