SageMaker HyperPod Cluster Not in a VPC

The cluster runs outside your network controls, so its traffic is not subject to the rules everything else is held to.

Free to start. No card. The playground just needs your work email.

01

Detect

ZopNight checks this automatically across AWS, with read-only access to the account.

02

Explain

Every finding says exactly what to change: Move SageMaker cluster into a VPC subnet.

03

Fix

The finding opens with the fix already written out, step by step, so it is one ticket, not an investigation.

Applies to
SageMaker Clusters on AWS
The fix, by hand
  1. HyperPod VPC is set at cluster creation and cannot be changed in place.
  2. Create a new cluster with VpcConfig pointing at private subnets + a restrictive security group.
  3. Use VPC endpoints (S3, SageMaker API) to keep traffic on the AWS network.
  4. Migrate workloads to the VPC-attached cluster and delete the old one.

These are the steps the finding carries in the product.
