We’ve gathered a scenario-based collection of labs and examples in [GitHub - vast-data/cosmos-labs: These are lab guides for our customer/partner training and lab environment](https://github.com/vast-data/cosmos-labs/). The labs will showcase different use cases for a fictional company named Orbital Dynamics, where the Python modules`vastpy` and `vastdb` provides functionality for automation, configuration, and monitoring.

Right now they can be ran inside your own test environment (please verify any code before running against production environments), and we’re working on getting these labs into the Cosmos Labs as well - so stay tuned!

According to _VAST Insider Channel News_:  
“For customers who require a full proof-of-concept, you can now deploy a fully-featured cluster in AWS or GCP. These powerful demo options give you the flexibility to impress customers at every stage of the sales cycle.”  
So, how can I deploy a **VAST fully-featured cluster in AWS or GCP** by myself? Are there any **reference steps or official deployment guides** available?
