In Redis Cloud Ultimate subscriptions, most customers build their subscriptions in our AWS accounts
so that we can take responsibility to make sure that the infrastructure is in optimal condition.
If you need to build your subscriptions in your own AWS accounts,
we need to have access to your AWS account to help with monitoring, maintenance, and technical support.

To provide us with secure authorization to access your AWS accounts, you need to:
Many customers use cloud provider accounts provisioned and maintained by Redis Labs.

1. Create a programmatic user and provide us with the access key and secret access key for that user.
1. Create a console role and provide us with that role name.
Customers with existing Amazon Web Services accounts can provision their Flexible or Annual subscriptions to use their existing AWS accounts.

To do so, you associate your existing AWS account as a _cloud account_ for your subscription, which requires entering credentials to enable monitoring, maintenance, and technical support.

You need to create:

1. A programmatic user and provide us with the access key and secret access key for that user.
1. A console role and provide us with that role name.

To create or edit a cloud account in Redis Cloud:

1. In **Cloud Accounts**, either:
- Click ![Add](/images/rs/icon_add.png#no-click "Add") to create a new account.
- Click on the account that you want to edit and then click **Edit**.
1. Enter the cloud account details:
- **Account Name** - A meaningful name for the account.
1. Sign into the admin console and then select the target subscription.

1. From the console menu, select **Cloud Accounts** and then either:

- Select the ![Add](/images/rs/icon_add.png#no-click "Add") to add a new account.

- Select the account that you want to edit and then select **Edit**.

1. Enter the cloud account details, which include:

- **Account Name** - A meaningful name for the account
- **AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID** - The AWS access key for the programmatic user
- **AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY** - The AWS secret access key for the programmatic user
- **IAM Role Name** - The name of the console role with access to the console
1. Click **Save**.

You can click **Delete** to delete your Cloud Account from Redis Cloud,
but only if it has no active subscription related to it.
1. Select **Save**.

Use the **Delete** button to remove a cloud account from your subscription.

A [Virtual Private Cloud](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_cloud) (VPC) is an isolated set of resources within a [public cloud](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing#Public_cloud), usually having its own subnets and VLAN.

Databases in Redis Cloud Pro and Ultimate are almost always deployed in a Redis Labs VPC. In most cases, you'll need to create a **VPC peering connection** to access these databases. A VPC peering connection allows unrestricted network access between two VPCs.
Databases in Flexible and Annual subscriptions are almost always deployed in a Redis Labs VPC. In most cases, you'll need to create a **VPC peering connection** to access these databases. A VPC peering connection allows unrestricted network access between two VPCs.

How you create these connections, and the features supported, varies somewhat by public cloud. You can read about VPC usage for [AWS](#vpcs-with-aws), [GCP](#vpcs-with-gcp), and [Azure](#vpcs-with-azure) below.
