Installation

Follow this guide to install P0 on an AWS-RDS-managed MySQL instance or cluster. P0 treats individual MySQL instances, MariaDB instances, and Aurora MySQL clusters in the same manner.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have

  • Admin access to the database instance (or cluster)

  • AWS permissions that allow you to create IAM policies, and grant those policies to roles

  • AWS permissions that allow you to create ECR repositories, add images to that repository, create Lambda functions, and create VPC endpoints and security groups within the database's VPC

  • A P0 AWS RDS integration installed on the VPC that hosts the database
