Flagsmith AWS Starter kit

Deploying Flagsmith to AWS ECS (with whitenoise)

This is an example, how Flagsmith can be hosted,

This is not production ready solution

AWS infrastructure consists of:

• IAM
• Route53 subdomain
• Networking:
  • VPC
  • Public and private subnets
  • Routing tables
  • Internet Gateway
• Security Groups
• Load Balancers, Listeners, and Target Groups
• IAM Roles and Policies
• ECS:
  • Task Definition with flagsmith:latest image
  • Cluster
  • Service
• RDS
• Secrets with Parameter Store
• Logs

How to use this project

1. Register AWS Route53 Hosted Zone
   for example yourdomain.com

2. Generate certificate with AWS Certificate Manager
   with *.yourdomain.com pattern

3. Define your variables like hosted zone domain and more desired settings in terraform.tfvars file

   route53_hosted_zone = "yourdomain.com"

   Currently containers are run on Fargate SPOT instances: ecs_service.tf:

   capacity_provider_strategy {
   capacity_provider = "FARGATE_SPOT"
   weight            = 100
   }
   capacity_provider_strategy {
     capacity_provider = "FARGATE"
     weight            = 0
   }

4. Generate plan for infrastructure terraform plan -out flagsmith.tfplan

5. Apply infrastructure by running terraform apply flagsmith.tfplan

After a few minutes flagsmith will be available at your domain

you can delete a whole setup by running terraform destroy --auto-approve
