AWS RDS (PostgreSQL)

[buckyroberts]

Create both requirements and settings files to support AWS RDS (PostgreSQL) support. Also create a guide for new users with instructions on how to deploy on AWS (include any IAM roles needed, security group rules, etc...). The guide can be written using Google Docs for now. Once completed and reviewed, the FE team will format it and add it to the website.

• this is a p2p network, so users will be setting up these servers using many different services (AWS, Heroku, DigitalOcean, etc...)

• right now we just have a simple guide on how to set up a server on DigitalOcean with basic configuration (Redis running locally, local SQLite, etc...)

  • https://thenewboston.com/deployment-guide/validator
  • https://github.com/thenewboston-developers/Validator/blob/master/config/settings/production.py

• when the project is released we will need to run these nodes on a more production ready environment (RDS, ElastiCache, etc...)

Please include all details step by step that would allow beginners to follow along. This guide will be used by both experienced and very junior DevOps engineers.
