PANGEO Terraform Deploy

Opinionated deployment of a PANGEO-style JupyterHub with Terraform

What?

A cloud based JupyterHub close to your data is a great way to run interactive computations, especially paired with Dask for parallel compute. However, setting these up on your cloud provider of choice in an automated fashion with reasonable defaults can be a chore. This project aims to automate as much of that as possible.

This project's goal is to help you set up and maintain this kind of environment in a completely automated fashion - including setting up all the cloud infrastructure necessary. We do this by leveraging open source projects like terraform, helm and zero-to-jupyterhub.

Currently, there is only code for AWS here. However, we hope other cloud providers will be represented here soon enough.

How?

AWS Setup

1. Install Tools

You'll need the following tools installed:

  1. Terraform. If you are on MacOS, you can install it with brew install terraform
  2. kubectl. If you are on MacOS, you can install it with brew install kubectl
  3. AWS CLI

2. Authenticate to AWS

You need to have the aws CLI configured to run correctly from your local machine - terraform will just read from the same source. The documentation on configuring AWS CLI should help.

3. Fill in your variable names

The terraform deployment needs several variable names set before it can start. You can copy the file aws/your-cluster.tfvars.template into a file named aws/<your-cluster>.tfvars, and modify the placeholders there as appropriate.

4. Run terraform!

Once this is all done, you should:

a. cd aws b. Run terraform init to set up appropriate plugins c. Run terraform apply -var-file=<your-cluster>.tfvars, referring to The tfvars file you made in step 3 d. Type yes when prompted e. Wait for a while. This could take a while!

Your cluster is now set up! There are no hubs on it yet though. You should make a copy of the hubploy template repo, and go from there.
