With AWS, organizations now have the ability to develop and run their applications with speed and flexibility like never before. Working with an infrastructure that can be 100% API-driven enables organizations to use lean methodologies and realize these benefits. In this session, we will explore some key concepts and design patterns for continuous deployment and continuous integration, two elements of lean application and infrastructure development. We will look at several use cases where IT organizations leveraged AWS to rapidly develop and iterate on applications for scale, high availability and cost optimization.

What is Continuous Integration?
Changes to code automatically deployed to mainline
branch
• After passing unit and mock tests
Makes changes to code, and deployments iterative, not
monolithic
Bugs are detected quickly
Allows rapid development
Helps automate deployments

Configuration Management: Puppet
In mid-2011, we looked at options for configuration
management and chose Puppet
We needed to make it scale, and to get it to work with
state-less, horizontally scalable infrastructure
How did we do this?

48. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Bootstrapping Puppet with CloudInit
CloudInit is built
into Ubuntu and
Amazon Linux
• Allows you to
pass bootstrap
parameters in
Amazon EC2
user-data field,
in YAML format

49. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Bootstrapping Puppet with CloudInit
Don’t store creds in puppet manifests, store them in private
Amazon S3 buckets
Either pass Amazon S3 creds through CloudInit:
Even better – avoid this by using AWS Identity and Access
Management (IAM) roles and AWS Unified CLI’s S3 client

50. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Bootstrapping Puppet with CloudInit
Built-in puppet support
Use certname with %i for instance id to name the node
Puppetmaster must have auto sign turned on
• Use security groups and/or NACLs for network-level security
In nodes.pp, use regex to match node names

51. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Puppet Tips
Use a base class to define your standard install

52. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Use runstages
Don’t store credentials in puppet, store them in private Amazon S3
buckets
• Use AWS IAM to secure the credentials bucket/folders within that bucket
Puppet Tips

53. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Puppet Tips
Use puppet only for configuration files and what makes
your apps unique
For undifferentiated parts of apps, use Amazon S3
backed RPM/Debian repositories
• Can be either public or private repos, depending on your needs
• Amazon S3 Private RPM Repos: http://git.io/YAcsbg
• Amazon S3 Private Debian Repos: http://git.io/ecCjWQ

54. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Puppet Tips
By using packages for applications deploys, you can set
ensure => latest, and just bump the package in the repo
to update
Log everything with
rsyslog/graylog/loggly/NewRelic/splunk

55. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
Scaling the Puppet Masters
Use an Auto Scaling group for puppet masters
• Min size => 2, use multiple Availability Zones
Either have them build themselves off of existing puppet
masters in the group or off packages stored in Amazon
S3 and bootstrapped through user-data
Auto-sign must be on

Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
One thing that is difficult to prepare for…

59. AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofits Symposium
Washington, DC | June 24, 2014 – June 26, 2014
If OFA was run on AWS today, what might that
look like?
Take advantage of OpsWorks
• This would simplify configuration management
Use CloudFormation to recreate environments for prod/dev/test quickly
Utilize PostgreSQL RDS instead of the many manually installed
PostgreSQL instances
Analytics data warehouse took months to build, RedShift would take
minutes
Docker containers could be used to easily allow developers to replicate
their dev environments in prod or staging
Use of immutable infrastructure
More use of CloudFront, resulting in less load on EC2 resources

• Included Apps, non-SOA: Thimble, Popcorn, Goggles
• ~20 pushes of new software in 2012
• Operations and Development interacted mostly through bugzilla
tickets for deploys.
• Hosting in physical datacenter at Mozilla
Webmaker.org circa early 2013
• Deciding to go 12-factor, SOA in app layer
• Weekly pushes of Popcorn on train model
• Operations and Development interacted mostly through bugzilla
tickets for deploys.
