Preparing for a deployment of Everpure Cloud Dedicated for Azure?

Automatic checklist (recommended)

We've prepared a script that you can execute to perform automatic tests and verify if the environment is ready for a Everpure Cloud Dedicated deployment. The script checks for the presence of required resources, including available quotas, validates the configuration of the VNet, and creates a temporary disposable VM to test the connectivity required for Everpure Cloud Dedicated deployment.

The checklist script is open-source and you can find the script on our GitHub here.

Manual checklist

This comprehensive checklist is designed to assist you in completing all the necessary prerequisites. Deployment may fail if all the requirements are not met.

Before deploying Everpure Cloud Dedicated, go through the following checklist:

  • IAM Roles Ensure you have the proper IAM roles for your user account. See the Azure IAM Roles section for details.
  • Outbound Internet Access Ensure there is internet access from the subnet used for the System interface. See the Internet Access section for details.
  • Service Endpoints Is there a Service Endpoint for CosmoDB, KeyVault and Microsoft Storage for the subnet used by the System interface? See the Service Endpoint section for details.
  • vCPU Quota Ensure that your max vCPU limits can accommodate Everpure Cloud Dedicated instances. See the Azure VM instance vCPU limits section for details.
  • License Have you retrieved your Evergreen//One (formerly Pure-As-A-Service) license from Pure1? Steps to retrieve licenses are discussed in Retrieve Everpure Cloud Dedicated License [1].
    Note:

    If you have not purchased a license, there are multiple options to obtain a license key:

    1. Work with Everpure sales teams and Everpure partners to obtain an Evergreen//One subscription.
    2. Go directly to the Azure Marketplace to sign up for a subscription service.
    3. From version 6.1.10 and later, there is an option to use a special license key for a timed trial of Everpure Cloud Dedicated without obtaining a subscription/license through Pure or the Azure Marketplace. For a full description and limitations, see Everpure Cloud Dedicated No License Mode.

  • Enabled Subscription ID [2]

    Have you added your Azure subscription ID to Pure1? This is security feature to ensure only user-approved Azure subscriptions are allowed to deploy Everpure Cloud Dedicated. Instructions to register and whitelist Azure subscriptions are provided in Retrieve Everpure Cloud Dedicated License [1].

For deploying Everpure Cloud Dedicated version 6.5.0 and below

  • Microsoft Entra ID Premium 2 license

    Does your tenant have an Microsoft Entra ID Premium 2 license? For Everpure Cloud Dedicated version 6.5.0 and below, the license is required for the Azure Just-In-Time feature.

If these requirements have been met, proceed and deploy Everpure Cloud Dedicated.
