Canton AWS Deployment

Hi everyone!

I tried deployment example from the GitHub Canton repo and faced a few problems.

First, if I run from this template source, as it is written in the instructions
https://canton-aws-quickstart.s3.amazonaws.com/canton.yaml

I got an error on the Postgres resource creation:

Cannot find version 12.5 for postgres

I found out that this particular version was deprecated. After running this command

aws rds describe-db-engine-versions --engine postgres --output table 

I found the closest supported version is 12.7. So I changed the template accordingly and ran the updated stack. Now there are no errors but a lot of events are in CREATE_IN_PROGRESS status. And the whole stack is in CREATE_IN_PROGRESS status for several hours already. The “Outputs” tab is empty.
I’m relatively new to AWS, what can be wrong here?
From the “Resources” tab I see that these two resources are hanging

Thanks!

Hi Victor,
The cloud deployment example you tried to followed is out-of-date. Please refer to the reply to your previous forum topic.

Canton AWS Questions

Hi everyone! I’d like to try Canton on AWS. I want to start with Canton AWS CloudFormation Deployment quick-start example from github Canton repo. My question is - does it extend the AWS free tier? So if I experiment with it on my personal account do I risk being charged? Thanks!
