Overview

These cloudformation templates enable you to deploy a highly availbile ghost blog with RDS and utilizing S3 as the backend static content store.

Deployment instructions

  • Code is written in AWS cloudformation templates with yaml formatting

  • Do the following:

    • clone the repo to a local dir git clone [email protected]:csumpter/ops-challenge.git
    • Create a public S3 bucket on your aws account
    • open master.yaml on your computer in an editor of choice
      • change any reference to TemplateURL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/ghost-service/.../<file name here>.yaml to TemplateURL: https://s3.amazonaws.com/<your bucket name>/.../<file name here>.yaml
    • Upload the modified dir and all of its contents to the AWS S3 bucket.
    • Copy the S3 url of the master.yaml file. It should be https://s3.amazonaws.com/< your bucket name>/master.yaml
    • Take that url and go to the AWS console - Under 'Management Tools' go to - 'CloudFormation'
    • Click 'Create Stack'
    • Choose 'Specify an Amazon S3 template URL'
    • Paste your S3 master.yaml url
    • Click 'Next'
    • Provide a 'Stack Name'
    • Provide a 'DatabasePassword'
      • Other parameters are optional and prefilled
    • Click 'Next'
    • Click 'Next' again to go to the final setup page.
    • Check the box at the bottom 'I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names.'
    • Click 'Create'

    Your stack will now be created. This takes about 20-25 minutes under the current build.
