Deployment on Docker #8

Closed mvkumar14 closed 4 years ago

mvkumar14 commented 4 years ago

The team had to switch from deployment on AWS to deployment on Heroku in the last few days of the project due to CORS issues. The current AWS solution launches a Flask app. These CORS issues may be resolved by using an AWS elastic beanstalk instance launching a docker container. Look into the docker solution, to deploy the recommendation model.

Here are the options:

Heroku Pros: CORS is functioning properly Cons: Filesize issue (data must be uploaded to the central repository before recommendation models can function). Also admin privileges to Lambda-School-Labs/betterreads-ds are required to deploy from the heroku_deployment branch

AWS Flask Pros: You don't have to worry about filesize Cons: CORS doesn't work

AWS Docker This seems to be the best solution. You can upload large files if needed, and in the long term code can be refactored to access the central database.

Successfully deployed using AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Will consider using a Docker container in future releases.
