Valhalla Setting Up a Valhalla Server on AWS

Valhalla Server Deployment README This README provides comprehensive instructions for deploying, testing, and accessing the Valhalla server on AWS using Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform.

Table of Contents Prerequisites AWS Setup using Terraform Docker Configuration Kubernetes Deployment Load Balancing and Scalability Networking and Security Testing and Accessibility Bonus Tasks FAQs Prerequisites AWS account with necessary permissions. Terraform installed locally. Docker installed locally. Kubernetes cluster configured (e.g., using kubectl). AWS CLI configured with appropriate credentials. AWS Setup using Terraform Navigate to the terraform directory. Open main.tf and update the required variables such as region, ami, and instance_type. Run the following commands: terraform init terraform apply Verify that the AWS resources (EC2 instance, VPC, etc.) have been created successfully. Docker Configuration Navigate to the root directory. Open the Dockerfile and ensure that the required dependencies and Valhalla server configurations are set correctly. Build the Docker image: docker build -t valhalla-server . Kubernetes Deployment Navigate to the kubernetes directory. Open valhalla-deployment.yaml and update the image URL with your ECR URL. Apply the Kubernetes configuration: kubectl apply -f valhalla-deployment.yaml Ensure that the Valhalla pods are running: kubectl get pods Load Balancing and Scalability Load balancing is automatically handled by the AWS Load Balancer in the Kubernetes Service configuration. Networking and Security Networking and security configurations are managed by Terraform (VPC, security groups) and Kubernetes (Service). Testing and Accessibility Perform load testing using a tool like Apache Benchmark: ab -n 1000 -c 10 http:///route-service Verify accessibility by accessing the public URL of the Load Balancer in a web browser. Bonus Tasks Monitoring and Logging Implement monitoring using Prometheus and Grafana. Configure container logging to AWS CloudWatch. Scalability Plan Describe your scalability plan considering auto-scaling groups, database optimization, and caching strategies. FAQs Q: What if I encounter issues during deployment? A: Check the logs of the Valhalla pods using kubectl logs for troubleshooting.

Q: How can I scale the Valhalla server for higher loads? A: Refer to the scalability plan in the bonus tasks section.
