Deployment

​
Each deployment scenario corresponds to a deployment profile, as described below. All these instructions use the deployment scripts from the medco repository.
If you are new to MedCo…
… and want to try to deploy the system on a single machine to test it, you should should follow the Local Test Deployment guide.
… and want to create or join a MedCo network, you should follow the Network Deployment guide.
… and want to develop around MedCo, you should follow the Local Development Deployment guide.
Deployment Profiles
A deployment profile is composed of two things:
deployment files medco/deployments/<profile name>/: docker-compose file and parameters like ports to expose, log level, etc.
configuration files medco/deployments/<profile name>/configuration/: files mounted in the docker containers, containing the cryptographic keys, the certificates, etc.
Some profiles are provided by default, for development or testing purposes. Those should not be used in a production scenario with real data, as the private keys are set by default, thus not private. Other types of profiles must generated using the script in medco/scripts/network-profile-tool/.
The different profiles are the following:
test-local-3nodes (Local Test Deployment)
for test on a single machine (used by the MedCo live demo)
3 nodes on any host
using the latest release of the source codes
no debug logging
profile pre-generated
network (Network Deployment)
for test or production deployment on several different hosts
a single node on a host part of a MedCo network
using the latest release of the source codes
no debug logging
profile must be generated prior to use with the provided scripts
dev-local-3nodes (Local Development Deployment)
for software development
3 nodes on the local host
using development version of source codes
debug logging enabled
profile pre-generated
