strategy draft here: https://www.lucidchart.com/invitations/accept/8a83a394-5cf6-48c8-9434-6803456c283a

status as of 1/9/19:
4 EC2 based on Islandora separation of concerns

• Karaf, crayfish
• Webserver (and database for now)
• Tomcat (fedora, blazegraph, etc)
• Solr

Separate security groups for each EC2 instance

Still working on issues with tokens allowing safe connections between some components

RDS has been set up for Drupal DB - still need to do for Fedora, Matomo, and Gemini. Pending PRs from other community member

[elizoller]

these PRs have been merged - now need to separate the other DBs on to RDS

[elizoller]

Ultimately, this will need to be replicated in asulibops (AWS production)

[elizoller]

There are several pending PRs for separating the database pieces (there might be more than this).
Islandora-Devops/islandora-playbook#162
islandora-deprecated/ansible-role-crayfish#31

Eventually we'll need a master ansible script which creates all the pieces (ie 4 EC2s at once, security groups, and the RDS, plus provision)

[elizoller]

As of 2/24, we've completed a setup on AWS for a 2 server split (with the exception of Cantaloupe). https://www.lucidchart.com/documents/edit/0e8fffb6-f214-442f-87a5-cccc6bccc3ee/0_0
Future enhancements will be opened in another ticket
