Version: 9.0

Deployment on AWS

This page describes the process and requirements for deploying a new Qrvey MultiPlatform Environment in AWS.

For all V9 installations, please first contact Customer Support.

Requirements

Docker: The latest version of Docker should be installed.
The Docker Image for the desired version, found in the release notes.
The registry username and password provided by the Qrvey Support team.
IAM user with Admin access, an access key, and a secret key: This is needed to create the resources for deployment.
The VPC (or equivalent) that is being used to deploy the Qrvey Platform should have a minimum CIDR of /22.
An S3 Bucket to store the state file. It should be in the same region as the deployment.
SMTP configuration to send emails.
A DNS Hosted Zone (Optional): To generate valid SSL Certificates for the Qrvey Composer domain. If there is no domain setup, we will generate one with the following format: $deployment_id.mp.qrveyapp.com. To automatically set up a custom DNS, the Route 53 zone should be in the same account as the deployment, and credentials should have sufficient permissions.

IAM Policy Minimum Required Permissions for Deployment Credentials:

If you use an IAM user for deployment, it should have the following permissions as minimum requirements in the policy.

Installation

To install Qrvey 9.0 (LTS) in your AWS account, you need to create the following file: config.json.

{
    "account_config": {
        "access_key_id": "<ACCESS_KEY>",
        "secret_access_key": "<SECRET_KEY>>",
        "region": "<REGION>",
        "bucket": "<S3_BUCKET_TO_STORE_THE_STATE_FILE>",
        "key": "<FILE_NAME>"
    },
    "variables": {
        "registry_user": "<REGISTRY_USER_PROVIDED_BY_QRVEY_SUPPORT>",
        "registry_key": "<REGISTRY_KEY_PROVIDED_BY_QRVEY_SUPPORT>",
        "qrvey_chart_version": "<QRVEY_VERSION>", // found at the end of the docker image provided above under pre-requisites
        "enable_location_services": true,
        "es_config": {
            "size": "large", // can be small, medium, or large
            "count": 1
        },
        "customer_info": {
            "firstname": "John",
            "lastname": "Smith",
            "email": "JS@qrvey.com",
            "company": "Qrvey"
        },
        "initial_admin_email": "JS@qrvey.com",
        "globalization": {
            "google_client_email": "",          // optional
            "google_client_private_key": "",    // optional
            "google_document_id": "",           // optional
            "google_document_sheet_title": ""   // optional
        },
        "enable_trino": false                   // optional
    }
}

Once the above prerequisites are ready, run the following commands to install Qrvey.

From your terminal, navigate to the directory that contains the config file above.

Use the following command to log in to the Qrvey Registry.

docker login qrvey.azurecr.io --username $registry_user --password-stdin <<< $registry_key

Run the installation commands with the desired Terraform option: plan, apply, output, or destroy.
For installation, use the apply option. The installation process should take about two hours.
```
# This command is for MAC. Choose the platform param as required based on your OS.
docker run --platform=linux/amd64 -v $(pwd)/config.json:/app/qrvey/config.json -it --rm qrvey.azurecr.io/qrvey-terraform-aws:${qrvey_version} apply
```
After running the apply command, wait until the process is complete and review the resources created.
You may run the following command to get environment outputs, including the admin username and password, to log in to Qrvey. Note: The command below is for MAC. Set the --platform param as required based on your OS.

docker run --platform=linux/amd64 -v $(pwd)/config.json:/app/qrvey/config.json -it --rm qrvey.azurecr.io/qrvey-terraform-aws:${qrvey_version} output
