Introduction
This section walks through building, installing, and upgrading a production Orchestrator deployment.
This includes building required artifacts (container images, Helm charts), deploying to Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), and upgrading between Orchestrator release versions.
Prerequisites
Throughout this guide we assume the MAGMA_ROOT
environment variable
is set to the local directory where you cloned the Magma repository
export MAGMA_ROOT=PATH_TO_YOUR_MAGMA_CLONE
Before deployment, it may be useful to read through the Magma prerequisites and Magma quick start guide sections.
Familiarity with the following is assumed
- AWS
- Kubernetes
- Terraform
The instructions in this section have been tested on macOS and Linux. If you are deploying from a Windows host, some shell commands will likely require adjustments.
Deploying specific release
To target a specific release, checkout the Magma repository's relevant release branch when building artifacts. This is also a great place to find relevant Terraform values.
Values for recent Orchestrator releases are summarized below
v1.4.0
Verified with Terraform version 0.14.0
. The latest Terraform version will
likely work as well.
v1.4
patch branchgithub.com/magma/magma//orc8r/cloud/deploy/terraform/orc8r-aws?ref=v1.4
Terraform module source1.5.8
Helm chart version- Additional notes
9.6
PostgreSQL target release, newer versions will likely work as well
v1.3.0
Verified with Terraform version 0.13.1
. The latest Terraform version will
likely work as well.
v1.3
