AWS Deployments

Commands for managing Foundry deployments in Amazon Web Services.

Available Commands

• provision - Create a new AWS Foundry deployment

• start - Start a stopped AWS Foundry deployment

• stop - Stop a running AWS Foundry deployment

• deprovision - Completely remove an AWS Foundry deployment

Command Syntax

datafye foundry aws <command> --name <deployment-name> --profile <aws-profile> [options]

AWS deployments require --name and --profile parameters. Multiple deployments can exist in the same AWS account.

Prerequisites

• AWS CLI v2 installed and configured (see AWS Setup)

• Datafye CLI installed (see Installation)

• Descriptor files configured (see Deployment Descriptors)

Use Cases

AWS Foundry deployments are ideal for:

• Production-scale development - More resources than local deployments

• Team collaboration - Shared deployment accessible to multiple developers

• Large-scale backtesting - Parallel backtests across big datasets

• Cloud-based paper trading - Always-on paper trading environment

Deployment Model

These commands create Distributed Self-managed deployments, where:

• You provision infrastructure in your own AWS account

• You manage and pay for all AWS resources

• Datafye provides the software and orchestration

For live trading, you'll need a Datafye Managed deployment provisioned by Datafye Ops. Contact Datafye to request managed deployment.
