Overview
This is a repackaged software product wherein additional charges apply for hardening, security configuration, and support.
WHAT IS TRINO
Trino is a fast, distributed SQL query engine for federated analytics, maintained by the Trino Software Foundation (the upstream of the project formerly known as PrestoSQL). It runs as a single Java 25 JVM that acts as both coordinator and worker, so one node is a complete cluster. Trino speaks ANSI SQL with a cost-based optimizer and executes queries in parallel across pluggable connectors, letting you join data that lives in object storage, relational databases, data lakes and streams - all in a single query, without copying or ETL. The full distribution ships 40+ connectors (S3, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Iceberg, Delta Lake, Hive, Kafka, ClickHouse, and more). Trino is stateless: it stores no data of its own and queries external sources directly. This image bundles the tpch (benchmark) and memory connectors so you can validate it immediately. Apache-2.0 license, no vendor lock-in.
WHAT THIS AMI ADDS
Security hardening:
- Admin password generated uniquely at first boot, written to /root/trino-credentials.txt (mode 600)
- File-based password authentication so CLI, JDBC and BI clients log in over TLS
- TLS terminated at nginx on port 443; Trino's HTTP port (8080) is bound behind the firewall, never exposed
- A unique internal cluster shared secret generated per instance at first boot
- JVM heap and query memory limits auto-sized to the instance RAM (no OOM on first launch)
- UFW firewall pre-configured (only ports 22 and 443 open)
- CVE scan - every image is scanned for vulnerabilities before release
OS hardening (CIS Level 1):
- CIS Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Level 1 benchmark applied via ansible-lockdown
- auditd, fail2ban, AppArmor, SSH key-only, kernel hardening, IMDSv2 enforced
Compliance artifacts:
- SBOM - CycloneDX 1.6 at /etc/lynxroute/sbom.json
- CIS Conformance Report at /etc/lynxroute/cis-report.html
- CIS Tailored Profile at /usr/share/doc/lynxroute/CIS_TAILORED_PROFILE.md
Highlights
- Trino security baked in: admin password generated at first boot, file-based password auth for CLI/JDBC/BI clients, TLS terminated at nginx, the query port bound behind the firewall - unlike bare Trino AMIs that expose port 8080 with no authentication, no TLS, and a default heap that OOMs on the recommended instance.
- CIS Level 1 hardened Ubuntu 24.04 LTS: auditd, fail2ban, AppArmor, SSH key-only, IMDSv2 enforced. CVE-scanned before every release. SBOM (CycloneDX) and CIS Conformance Report included.
- Federated SQL over 40+ sources: query S3, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Iceberg, Delta Lake and Kafka in one ANSI SQL statement, with the JVM heap auto-sized to your instance. Apache-2.0 license - fully auditable, no vendor lock-in.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Additional details
Usage instructions
- Launch instance (m6i.xlarge recommended; t3.large minimum)
- Open Security Group - allow TCP 443 from your IP
- SSH: ssh -i key.pem ubuntu@<PUBLIC_IP>
- Read credentials: sudo cat /root/trino-credentials.txt
- Open https://<PUBLIC_IP>/ui/ in your browser - accept the self-signed certificate warning, then log in as admin with the password from the credentials file
- Connect a SQL client over TLS: trino --server https://<PUBLIC_IP> --user admin --password JDBC: jdbc:trino://<PUBLIC_IP>:443?SSL=true (user admin, password from the file)
- Run a query: SELECT count(*) FROM tpch.tiny.orders;
Trino runs as a single-node coordinator and worker. The admin password is generated at first boot and saved to /root/trino-credentials.txt. The JVM heap and query memory are sized automatically from the instance RAM.
Bundled catalogs: tpch (synthetic benchmark data) and memory (volatile in-memory tables). Add your own catalogs under /etc/trino/catalog/ to query S3, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Iceberg, Delta Lake, Kafka and more.
Replace the self-signed TLS certificate with a CA-signed certificate for production use (sudo certbot --nginx).
