Notes: The instance type needs to have at least 4 CPU and 16GB RAM for TigerGraph to work properly. The security group must allow inbound TCP traffic to port 14240 if you want to access GraphStudio (TigerGraph's visualization platform). For more about GraphStudio, see the GraphStudio UI Guide. The security group must allow inbound TCP traffic to port 9000 if you want to send RESTful requests to TigerGraph from outside the instance (this includes configuring the GSQL client on a remote machine). For more about the REST API, see the TigerGraph RESTful API User Guide.

For more about the TigerGraph Platform, see the TigerGraph Platform Overview.

gadmin license status

Gadmin license status output

AWS China:

Since AWS China does not allow paid AWS marketplace products, the TigerGraph Enterprise edition image will require an existing license to be able to start. Please use your existing 3.x license if you have one or contact tigergraph support for a new one.
