Create a IAM Role

AWS users should not use the AWS root user to create or manage clusters. Use an IAM user with the SingleStore Cluster Management Role to deploy and manage clusters on AWS.

Here is the minimum required privilege IAM Policy needed for the SingleStore Cluster Management Role:

When deploying SingleStore via Cloud Formation script, SingleStore recommends using the SingleStore Cluster Management Role to deploy and manage the cluster.

AWS administrators should rotate the user access key and secret periodically if IAM Roles are used to manage the users.

Use the following steps to verify the authenticity of singlestoredb-server, singlestoredb-toolbox, singlestoredb-studio, and singlestore-client SingleStore files that have been downloaded.

You may perform the following steps on any computer that can run cosign, such as the main deployment host of the cluster.

  1. (Optional) Run the following command to view the associated signature files.

    curl undefined

  2. Download the signature file from the SingleStore release server.

    • Option 1: Click the Download Signature button next to the SingleStore file.

    • Option 2: Copy and paste the following URL into the address bar of your browser and save the signature file.

    • Option 3: Run the following command to download the signature file.

      curl -O undefined

  3. After the signature file has been downloaded, run the following command to verify the authenticity of the SingleStore file.

    echo -n undefined |
        cosign verify-blob --certificate-oidc-issuer https://oidc.eks.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/id/CCDCDBA1379A5596AB5B2E46DCA385BC \
          --certificate-identity https://kubernetes.io/namespaces/freya-production/serviceaccounts/job-worker \
