Prerequisites

Before being able to install and set up the Chariot MQTT Server you must have an Amazon Web Services (AWS) account. If you do not already have one you can create one here.

Summary

This process covers installing the Chariot MQTT Server into an AWS account as an EC2 instance. For reference, the Chariot MQTT Server Cloud Formation Template used to build the AWS infrastructure is here - chariot.yaml. Note this yaml file is here purely for reference to show exactly what is done during the cloud formation deployment. You do not need to manually deploy using the chariot.yaml file as this happens automatically when you deploy Chariot via the AWS Marketplace.

Chariot Installation on AWS via Marketplace

Before deploying Chariot you must create create an AWS EC2 key pair which will ultimately allow you to SSH into the EC2 instance that gets created as part of the process. Information on how to create the key pair can be found here. The key pair must be created in the AWS Region that you intend to deploy Chariot into.

Information on accessing the EC2 instance via SSH can be found here.
