ELB not exposing to internet

Our Org is restricting traffic to internet in this case , is it possible to spin up the instance with ELB not exposing to internet ?

hi @rvijay.chem !!

Welcome to our community :hugs: !!

It is possible to use Weaviate without using the Internet, or in Air Gapped environments, for example.

However, if you are using a vectorizer that is in the internet, you will have issues, as Weaviate will need to reach out to the internet to get those vectors.

That can be solved by running your own vectorizer model, so no Internet needed. This can be done with ollama, kubeai and other options.

You can also “Bring your own vectors”, meaning vectorizing the data yourself and providing those vector when ingesting your data in Weaviate:

Check here for a comprehensive start guide:

Let me know if that helps!

We are using Weavite Marketplace from AWS for our setup which spins ups ELP with internet facing. do you have any cloud formation stack for Air gapped environments available ?

I believe the best offering, for “non conventional” deployments is to reach out to our sales team for the BYOC: “Bring your own cloud”:

Our Cloud and Marketplace offering understandably doesn’t have the flexibility that BYOC can bring to fit this kind of requirements.

Let me know if that helps!
