Datafy Installation

You can install the Datafy AutoScaler directly, or start with the Datafy Sensor and update later on.

1

Configure Permissions

Datafy requires basic permissions to view the EC2 instances your volumes are attached to, and to control the creation and modification of EBS volumes.

2

Grant Network Access

Network access is required to allow the Datafy agent to communicate with our application’s backend. If access is blocked by default, access to Datafy needs to be whitelisted.

3

Generate a Security Token

Generate a security token used to identify your account with Datafy's application.

4

Install Sensor or AutoScaler

Install Datafy with one command line and zero downtime. It can be installed on an EC2 instance, or on a K8s cluster using a DaemonSet.

Datafy supports the following infrastructure:

• EC2 or any K8s cluster (EKS or self-managed)

• Any Linux based OS distribution - Amazon Linux, Ubuntu, and more.

The full list of supported cases can be found here.
