📄️ Manage data credentials for Azure
A data credential for Azure in CelerData references a managed identity, which declares read and write permissions on a container in an Azure storage account. Through a managed identity, the VMs within an Azure virtual network can gain read and write permissions on specific storage. After you create a CelerData cluster by using a specific data credential, all profiles generated by CelerData for SQL queries within the cluster will be stored to the Azure storage account and container referenced in the data credential.
📄️ Manage deployment credentials for Azure
A deployment credential for Azure in CelerData includes a service principal and an SSH key pair. The service principal allows CelerData to launch the necessary resources required for your deployment and follow-up scaling, while the SSH key pair provides CelerData the necessary access to deploy services on your Azure virtual network.
📄️ Manage network configurations for Azure
A network configuration for Azure in CelerData defines the network infrastructure such as the virtual network and subnet that hosts your CelerData cluster deployment, as well as the security rules that control the incoming and outgoing traffic of the CelerData cluster.
