Create an AWS connection to an Edge or Collibra Cloud site

After you install an Edge site or are granted a Collibra Cloud site, you can create a connection to Amazon Web Services.

Tip You can also integrate metadata from Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio, built on Amazon SageMaker Catalog. For more information, go to the Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio documentation.

Prerequisites

In your Collibra environment

You either created and installed an Edge site or were granted a Collibra Cloud site.
Note
If you have defined an outbound (forward) proxy on your Edge site, the integration will take that configuration into account when connecting to the AI platform. The following proxies are supported, using either a HTTP or HTTPS proxy URL:
- Pass through (No authentication)
- Pass through (Basic authentication)
- No proxy for noProxy hosts defined by Edge
This integration is not supported on Edge sites installed using a Man-in-the-middle (MITM) proxy.

If you want to add connection values from a vault, you have added the vault to your Edge site. If your data source connection requires a file from your vault, the file must be encoded into Base64 and stored as a regular secret in your vault. For more information, go to the Vault documentation.

Note Vaults are not supported on Collibra Cloud sites.

You have a global role that has the Manage connections and capabilities global permission, for example, Edge integration engineer.

In your AWS environment

You have the following Amazon SageMaker API permissions and Amazon S3 permissions:

Amazon SageMaker API:

sagemaker:DescribeModelPackage
sagemaker:ListModelPackageGroups
sagemaker:ListModelPackages

Amazon S3

s3:GetObject
s3:ListBucket

For details, go to Amazon SageMaker API Permissions: Actions, Permissions, and Resources Reference and Policies and permissions in Amazon S3 in AWS documentation.
