AWS setup

Initial R&D

This is an update referenced to #12

Start with testing following

• [ ] Test: Create a batch of 10 sub-accounts.
• [ ] Test: Remove/Delete the 10 sub-accounts.
• [ ] Test: Create a batch of sub-accounts with a service deployed on each of them(ex: 1 VM each)
• [ ] Test: Remove/Delete the 10 sub-accounts with VM's

Research

• [ ] Can we add say 4 people to the same sub-account, So that all team members will get on the same sub-account?
• [ ] If above = true, Can we run say 1 server that the 4 users can access at the same time ( _basically this will be more cost-efficient + it adds the factor that either @raznem or @jacekplocharczyk mentioned, that the team will be able to affect how they utilize the resources and also make it fair play regardless of a team have 2 or 5 members, they will have the same type of resource)

Handling data around accounts Through dll-web-app we will be able to pull data in various forms. We need to establish the format of the data used for cloud-formation

• [ ] Establish format of data, User by user or users grouped by team and then inform @Mindgames so an export function for Firestore can be developed that will pull & transform data as requested

Infrastructure & runtime

• [ ] Establish what type of servers that are needed & if elastic GF units should be added. Once established inform @Mindgames so he can clear any limitations with AWS
• CPU's should not be an issue
• High-end GPU like V100 could become limited if we are looking to run 200-400 simulations instances.
• Optimal would be like mentioned in the previous post, that each team gets 1 machine with X CPU & X GPU, which would make it easier as sourcing 100 Nvidia V100 is a lot easier than 400 of them.

More to establish

• [ ] Can we set initial Git repo to pull from in cloud formation?
• [ ] How do users get their login information? ( is it auto send or do we get a list. If we get a list a function will be built that can parse the data and email login information to all the users )

I or Paweł will post here some summary after contacting with Tomek from AWS.
