Accessing the Matillion ETL Client (Amazon EC2)

This article assumes you have already launched a Matillion ETL instance on AWS. Please consult the guides in Getting Started → Launching or see Related Articles on the sidebar for more.

The instructions below will guide you to finding the necessary details to connect to your launched Matillion ETL instance. This guide assumes for the most part that you have not set up custom user logins on the instance and will be requiring default login details.

Accessing Matillion ETL on Amazon Web Services (EC2)

These instructions assume you have already created and successfully launched Matillion ETL from the AWS marketplace.

To log into your Matillion ETL client, you will need some details of your EC2 instance. To begin, browse to the EC2 Management Console of your AWS account. (Or browse to Services → EC2 → Instances)

Please follow the steps below to login to the Matillion ETL instance.

1. Select the running instance that hosts your Matillion ETL client.
2. Take note of your Instance ID (e.g. i-88ed92c6), as this will be the default password for your instance for your initial login.
3. Take note of the IP or Public DNS, as appropriate, that you can use to connect to your client via your internet browser or you can launch the Instance by clicking the link Open Address.
