Infrastructure for the Agora application.

This repo contains infrastructure templates for the Agora application. It is also setup with CI/CD to automatically deploy the infrastructure to AWS.

Agora runs on AWS as an Elastic Beanstalk app.

The instances running agora and the database for it runs in a private subnet which means neither the instances nor the database are accessible from the internet.

There is a specific workflow for making changes to the infrastructure.

• Make pull requests to this repo
• Get someone to review and approve your changes
• Change is merged after being approved
• Travis runs a build to test the infrastructure templates
• Travis deploys the updated infrastructure to AWS

We have configured Travis to deploy CF template updates. Travis deploys using sceptre

We setup Agora application to run in AWS Elastic Beanstalk. The beanstalk is setup to run Agora in three environments:

• Development -> https://agora-develop.adknowledgeportal.org
• Staging -> https://agora-staging.adknowledgeportal.org
• Production -> https://agora.adknowledgeportal.org

To deploy Agora updates to one of the environments just merge code to the branch you would like to deploy to then Travis will take care of building, testing and deployming the Agora application.

• We use the AWS SSM to store secrets for this project. Sceptre retrieves the secrets using a sceptre ssm resolver and passes them to the cloudformation stack on deployment.
