-Acryl DataHub comes packaged with an Acryl-managed executor, which is hosted inside of Acryl's environment on your behalf. However, there are certain scenarios in which an Acryl-hosted executor is not sufficient to cover all of an organization's ingestion sources.

+Acryl DataHub comes packaged with an Acryl-managed executor, which is hosted inside of Acryl's environment on your behalf. However, there are certain scenarios in which an Acryl-hosted executor is not ideal or sufficient to cover all of an organization's ingestion sources. For example, if an ingestion source is hosted behind a firewall or in an environment with strict access policies, then the Acryl executor might be unable to connect to it to extract metadata.

+To accommodate these cases, Acryl supports configuring a Remote Ingestion Executor which can be deployed inside of your environment – whether that is on-prem or in cloud. This setup allows you to continue leveraging the Acryl DataHub console to create, schedule, and run both ingestion and assertion monitors, all while retaining network and credential isolation.

+The Remote Ingestion Executor can be deployed on several different platforms, including [Amazon ECS](#deploying-on-amazon-ecs), [Kubernetes](#deploying-on-kubernetes) (GKE, EKS or self-hosted) and others. It can also be deployed using several different methods, including [CloudFormation](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/acryldata/datahub-cloudformation/master/remote-executor/datahub-executor.ecs.template.yaml) or [Terraform](https:/acryldata/datahub-terraform-modules/tree/main/remote-ingestion-executor) templates for ECS, or [Helm chart](https:/acryldata/datahub-executor-helm) for Kubernetes. Please reach out to your Acryl representative for other alternatives.
 
-## Deploying a Remote Executor
 
-> [!NOTE]
-> Customers migrating from the legacy DataHub Executor: migration to the new executor requires a configuration change on Acryl side. Please contact your Acryl representative for detailed guidance.
->
-> Steps you will need to perform on your end when instructed by your Acryl representative:
-> 1. Temporarily stop your legacy DataHub Remote Executor instance (e.g. `aws ecs update-service --desired-count 0 --cluster "cluster-name" --service "service-name"`)
-> 2. Deploy new DataHub Executor using steps below.
-> 3. Trigger an ingestion to make sure the new executor is working as expected.
-> 4. Tear down legacy executor ECR deployment.

- **Alternatively**: if you prefer to deploy Acryl Remote Executor on your private Kubernetes cluster, please use [DataHub Executor Helm chart](https:/acryldata/datahub-executor-helm/tree/main/charts/datahub-executor-worker). Similar to the above, you would need to provide the following parameters when installing the chart:
- 1. **Create a secret with DataHub Access Token**. A valid DataHub PAT. You can create the secret object as follows:
- ```
- $ kubectl create secret generic datahub-access-token-secret --from-literal=datahub-access-token-secret-key=<DATAHUB-ACCESS-TOKEN>
- ```
- 2. **Acryl DataHub URL**: The URL for your DataHub instance, e.g. `<your-company>.acryl.io/gms`. Note that you MUST enter the trailing /gms when configuring the executor.
- 3. **Acryl Remote Executor Version:** The version of the remote executor to deploy. This is converted into a container image tag.
- 4. **Optionally** pass source secrets/environment variables as necessary.

- Install DataHub Executor chart as follows:
-
- ```
- $ helm install \

 3. **Test the Executor:** To test your remote executor:
 
  1. Create a new Ingestion Source by clicking '**Create new Source**' the '**Ingestion**' tab of the DataHub console. Configure your Ingestion Recipe as though you were running it from inside of your environment.
  2. When working with "secret" fields (passwords, keys, etc), you can refer to any "self-managed" secrets by name: `${SECRET_NAME}:`

 ## FAQ

+### If I need to change (or add) a secret that is stored in AWS Secrets Manager, e.g. for rotation, will the new secret automatically get picked up by Acryl's executor?
 
 Unfortunately, no. Secrets are wired into the executor container at deployment time, via environment variables. Therefore, the ECS Task will need to be restarted (either manually or via a stack parameter update) whenever your secrets change.
