High-availability databases #2

Open benjaminran opened 7 years ago

benjaminran commented 7 years ago

Add in a failover instance of the databases to ensure that the primary database node failing doesn't bring down redwood.

install_bootstrap shouldn't try to handle this--it should allow external database connection info to be specified and leave the critical work to AWS RDS, etc.

This requires modifying the redwood installer as well as factoring out the docker databases into a separate, excludable docker-compose file.
