Deploy

We chose AWS Elastic Beanstalk as our method of deployment because of its (1) low complexity, (2) high availability features, and (3) ease of use under time constraints. To learn more about all the deployment options we considered, refer to the CONSIDERATIONS.md document

Setup

# Install
brew install awsebcli

# Initialize app in Elastic BeanStalk
pip freeze > requirements.txt
eb init sample-star -p python-3.8 --region us-west-1

Deploy app

# Create environment from app
eb create sample-star-env -v --min-instances 4 --max-instances 8

# Redeploy new source code
eb deploy

# Adjust the number of running instances
eb scale 2 sample-star-env

# Terminate the environment
