Associate an OpenSearch computing resource

Prerequisites

• You have purchased an OpenSearch Vector Search Edition instance.

  Note

  We recommend that the OpenSearch Vector Search Edition instance and the DataWorks workspace are in the same Region. If they are in different regions, you cannot associate the instance as a computing resource.

• You have created a workspace in DataWorks, and the RAM user that you use has been added to the workspace and assigned the Workspace Administrator role.

  Important

  Only workspaces that Use Data Studio (New Version) are supported.

• You have associated a resource group with the workspace and ensured network connectivity.

  • If you use a serverless resource group, ensure that the OpenSearch instance can connect to the serverless resource group.

  • If you use a legacy exclusive resource group, ensure that the OpenSearch instance can connect to the exclusive scheduling resource group for the relevant scenario.

Limitations

• Product limitation: You can associate only OpenSearch Vector Search Edition instances as OpenSearch computing resources.

• Region limitation: China (Hangzhou), China (Shanghai), China (Beijing), China (Shenzhen), China (Hong Kong), Singapore, and Germany (Frankfurt).

• Permission limitation:

  User	Required permissions
  Alibaba Cloud account	No additional permissions are required.
  RAM user or RAM role	Only workspace members with the O&M or Workspace Administrator role, or those with the AliyunDataWorksFullAccess permission, can create computing resources. For more information, see Grant workspace administrator permissions.

Go to the computing resource list page

1. Log on to the DataWorks console. In the navigation pane on the left, switch to the target region and click More > Management Center. Select your workspace from the drop-down list and click Go to Management Center.

2. In the navigation pane on the left, click Computing Resources to open the computing resource list page.

Associate an OpenSearch computing resource

On the computing resource list page, perform the following steps to associate an OpenSearch computing resource.

1. Select the computing resource type.

   1. Click Associate Computing Resources to go to the Associate Computing Resources page.

   2. On the Associate Computing Resources page, select OpenSearch. The Associate OpenSearch Computing Resource configuration page opens.

2. Configure the OpenSearch computing resource.

   On the Associate OpenSearch Computing Resource configuration page, configure the following parameters:

   Parameter	Description
   OpenSearch Instance	Select an OpenSearch instance that you have purchased. You can also click Create in the drop-down list to open the OpenSearch purchase page and purchase an OpenSearch Vector Search Edition instance. Note If you isolated the development and production environments when you created the workspace, you must select a separate OpenSearch instance for each environment.
   Username	Enter the username that you set when you created the OpenSearch instance. You can view the username on the OpenSearch instance management page.
   Password	Enter the password that you set when you created the OpenSearch instance.
   Computing Resource Instance Name	Enter a name for the computing resource. Tasks use this name to select the resource at runtime.

3. Test network connectivity.

   In the connection configuration section, select the resource group that DataWorks uses to run OpenSearch offline synchronization tasks. Then, click Test Connectivity to ensure that the resource group can access your OpenSearch instance. For more information, see Overview of network connectivity solutions.

4. Click Confirm to complete the OpenSearch computing resource configuration.

What to do next

After you associate the OpenSearch computing resource, you can develop offline synchronization tasks in a Data Integration > Batch Sync node in Data Studio. For more information, see Offline synchronization nodes.
