Sunlight cluster on AWS

The Sunlight can be deployed directly onto AWS metal servers as on-demand infrastructure. A sunlight cluster is comprised of a minimum of 2 nodes. Each node is an Amazon EC2 metal instance. Once deployed it is a fully functional HCI cluster running within AWS with integrated elastic network support via the AWS Nitro hardware card. Currently Sunlight supports the following metal instances with different hardware configuration:

Name	vCPU	RAM(GiB)	Local Storage	Network Bandwidth
i3.metal	72	512	8 x 1900 NVMe direct attached, EBS on-demand	25 Gbps
i3en.metal	96	768	8 x 7500 NVMe direct attached, EBS on-demand	100 Gbps
z1d.metal	48	384	2 x 900 NVMe direct attached, EBS on-demand	25 Gbps

Once deployed, appropriate instance flavours can be created via the Sunlight dashboard to match the resources as defined for the reference AWS instances.
