# AWS re:Invent 2018 session ENT-356S

This repo contains Terraform code shown in the AWS re:Invent 2018 session **[ENT-356S: How Cox Automotive Runs GitHub Enterprise on AWS](https://www.portal.reinvent.awsevents.com/connect/search.ww#loadSearch-searchPhrase=%22ENT356-S%22&searchType=session&tc=0&sortBy=abbreviationSort&p=)** [(slide deck)](https://github.com/akinaito/reinvent18/blob/patch-1/ENT%20356-S%20How%20Cox%20Automotive%20Runs%20GitHub%20Enterprise%20on%20AWS.pdf), which demonstrates the use of a Terraform module to define the infrastructure for a GitHub Enterprise environment. The module creates a pair of instances meant for a High Availability configuration, with the first instance configured as a primary appliance using an exported configuration from an existing GitHub Enterprise appliance. You can export a configuration from an existing appliance using the ["retrieve settings" Management Console API endpoint](https://developer.github.com/enterprise/2.15/v3/enterprise-admin/management_console/#retrieve-settings).

In order to use this module you must have a valid license and settings files. A password value must also be supplied as an AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store string in the same region where the appliances will be created. This string must be located in Parameter Store under the path `/<env_tag>/ghe_password` where `<env_tag>` is equal to the first part of the GitHub Enterprise environment's hostname. For example, for the hostname mygithub.example1.com the string would need to be located under `/mygithub/ghe_password` in Parameter Store.
