Bringing the leading vector database to your cloud

This post announces the early access of Pinecone's Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) offering for AWS. It details how BYOC allows customers to deploy a privately managed Pinecone region within their AWS account, ensuring data sovereignty and control. The architecture is described as a split model with a customer-hosted Data Plane and a Pinecone-hosted Control Plane. Key benefits highlighted include enhanced security, compliance, enterprise-grade access controls, private multi-tenant regions, deployment in any AWS region, and potential cost savings by leveraging existing AWS discounts. The post also mentions the use of RBAC with IAM permissions and boundary policies for security, and a customer-controlled VPN for maintenance access.
