terraform-aws-iglu-server-ec2

A Terraform module which deploys a Snowplow Iglu Server application on AWS running on top of EC2. If you want to use a custom AMI for this deployment you will need to ensure it is based on top of Amazon Linux 2.

Telemetry

This module by default collects and forwards telemetry information to Snowplow to understand how our applications are being used. No identifying information about your sub-account or account fingerprints are ever forwarded to us - it is very simple information about what modules and applications are deployed and active.

If you wish to subscribe to our mailing list for updates to these modules or security advisories please set the user_provided_id variable to include a valid email address which we can reach you at.

How do I disable it?

To disable telemetry simply set variable telemetry_enabled = false.

What are you collecting?

For details on what information is collected please see this module: https://github.com/snowplow-devops/terraform-snowplow-telemetry

Usage

The Iglu Server stack requires a Load Balancer and a Postgres instance to save information into for its backend. Here we are using several managed modules to facilitate this requirement but you can also sub in your own Postgres Host and Load Balancer if you prefer to do so.

locals {
  iglu_db_name     = "iglu"
  iglu_db_username = "iglu"

  # Keep this secret!!
  iglu_db_password = "Hell0W0rld!"

  # Used for API actions on the Iglu Server. Keep this secret!!
  iglu_super_api_key = "2f48ad70-b70c-4f58-af3b-f19d8b7706e1"
}
