Deployment
These pages explain how to deploy MedCo in different scenarios.
​
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
