OVERVIEW
This project makes it easy to setup HPE Container Platform demo/trial environments on AWS
- The goal of this project is to easily create HPE Container Platform demo and trial environments.
- The concepts demonstrated in this project are not suitable for production environments.
- This project is for frequently creating and tearing down demo/trial environments.
- This project is not for creating and managing long-living demo/trial environments.
- Please read the project license before using this project.IMPORTANT: If you haven't yet had any exposure to HPE Container Platform, you should head to HPE Demonstration Portal (search for HPE Container Plaftorm) where you can schedule to run some demo workflows. This is available for HPE Employees and Partners only.
The following installed locally:
- Terraform - installation instructions|downloads
- AWS CLI - installation instructions
This project has been tested on Linux and OSX client machines - Windows is unlikely to work.
# If you haven't already configured the aws CLI with your credentials, run the following:
aws configure
# clone this project
git clone https://github.com/hpe-container-platform-community/hcp-demo-env-aws-terraform
cd hcp-demo-env-aws-terraform
# create a copy
cp ./etc/bluedata_infra.tfvars_example ./etc/bluedata_infra.tfvars
# edit to reflect your requirements
vi ./etc/bluedata_infra.tfvars
# initialise terraform
terraform init
For many more configuration options, see etc/bluedata_infra.tfvars_template.
Recommended - Define setup actions to run after environment is created
The etc/postcreate.sh_template script contains further setup actions that you can apply to your environment.
cp ./etc/postcreate.sh_template ./etc/postcreate.sh
Edit the script ./etc/postcreate.sh with your required customisations.
We are now ready to automate the environment setup ...
./bin/create_new_environment_from_scratch.sh
This may take 30 minutes or more until it is complete.
If the above script has run without error, you can retrieve the RDP/brower endpoint and credentials using:
./generated/rdp_credentials.sh
Use a Remote Desktop Client or open a webbrowser into the RDP host. You are then ready to configure your HPE Container Platform deployment with Gateways, Hosts, License, etc. For more information on the RDP server, see the README.
