DEMO UI: ScyllaDB in different cloud environments¶

Prerequisites¶

• AWS CLI

• Docker

• ScyllaDB Cloud API key

Usage¶

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/scylladb/1m-ops-demo.git
   cd 1m-ops-demo/
   

2. Make sure AWS CLI is configured properly, and know the location of the credentials file (e.g. ~/.aws/credentials)

3. Edit config.py

   {
       "aws_creds_file": "/home/user/.aws/credentials",
       "region": "us-east-1",
       "scylla_cloud_token": "API-TOKEN",
       "running_in_docker": true
   }
   

   • aws_creds_file: the location (absolute path) of your AWS credentials file

   • region: AWS region you want to use for the demo

   • scylla_cloud_token: You can generate an API token in ScyllaDB Cloud

   • running_in_docker: Normally this should be true

4. Run the web app (by default, it uses port 5000)

   ./build_and_run.sh 
   

   This will spin up a Docker container and run the web app on the 5000 port. You can stop the container with docker stop scylla-demo

5. Open DEMO UI application

   Go to http://0.0.0.0:5000

6. Select a demo you want to try (this will run terraform init under the hood)

7. (Optional) Configure cluster size and workload settings on the left side

8. Hit APPLY (this runs terraform apply)

9. Keep an eye on the console output to see when Terraform finishes

10. Click on the different dashboard tabs to monitor the cluster.

11. If you are done, don’t forget to run DESTROY to remove infrastructure elements and avoid unnecessary costs.
