Connect an AWS account to PD AWS Neptune in Blesta

Connect your hosting business’s AWS account before offering Neptune databases through PD AWS Neptune. Each order uses that account to create a managed graph-database cluster. The AWS access key authorises infrastructure management; it is separate from graph-query access. This module does not create a database username or password.

Prepare the account

Install PD Modules, connect the account holding your licence, then install PD AWS Neptune from its Store. Ask the AWS administrator for a dedicated IAM access key with permissions for the operations you intend to offer. Keep the key and secret out of customer applications, screenshots and tickets.

Review Neptune management, CloudWatch reads and EC2 security-group creation and ingress permissions separately. The module creates a firewall group during provisioning, so checking only database-read permission is insufficient. The AmazonRDSFullAccess policy includes database operations and metric reads, but not security-group creation or ingress changes. Have the administrator check any service-role prerequisites for first use as well.

Save the connection

Open Settings → Company → Modules, find PD AWS Neptune under Installed and choose Manage. Add an account with a recognisable name, Access Key ID and Secret Access Key, then save. Select that account on the package. Leaving an unchanged secret blank when editing retains its stored value.

Open PD Modules → PD AWS Neptune → Settings → Test Connection. Read what the connection test verifies before treating a passing result as proof that provisioning will succeed.

Check the offering

Confirm that the package uses the intended account and region. Plan private application access before accepting orders. When rotating credentials, verify the required dependent operations before retiring the previous pair. A passing read test does not establish write permissions, available capacity or a working graph-query connection.
