Create a user account with administrator permissions on the cloud platform.

Create a resource on the cloud platform where you can create clusters.

On AWS, create a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
On Azure, create a Virtual Network (vnet)

The Informatica domain and the cluster the workflow creates must be located on this resource.

If the Informatica domain is installed on-premises, enable DNS resolution.

An Informatica domain must be installed. The domain can reside on an instance on the Amazon or Microsoft Azure cloud platform, or on an on-premises machine. If the Informatica instance is installed on-premises, you must configure the VPN to connect to the AWS VPC or Azure vnet where the cluster runs.

You must have permissions to create connections on the domain.

To create clusters on AWS, the AWS administrator must open the required ports for the security group to use in the VPC where you want to create the cluster.
