# Confluent Hybrid-Cloud Workshop

## Overview

This repository allows you to configure and provision an Confluent workshop running on AWS. Each workshop participant connects to their own EC2 instance that is intended to act as a psuedo on-premise datacenter. A single Confluent Cloud cluster is shared by all workshop participants.

For a single workshop participant, the logical architecture looks like this.

From a physical architecture point of view, each component, except for Confluent Cloud, is hosted on the participant's virtual machine. 

Each workshop participant will work through a series of Labs to create the following ksqlDB Supply & Demand Application.

* Terraform 0.12.20 or later
* Python + [Yaml](https://pyyaml.org/wiki/PyYAML)
* An AWS account with the appropriate privileges
* A Confluent Cloud Account

## Provisioning a Workshop

Create an empty directory somewhere that will contain your workshop configuration file.

```
mkdir ~/myworkshop
```

Copy `workshop-example-aws.yaml` to `workshop.yaml` in the directory you just created.

```
cp workshop-aws-example.yaml ~/myworkshop/workshop.yaml
```

Edit `~/myworkshop/workshop.yaml` and make the required changes.

Change your current directory to the root of the repository

```
cd ~/confluent-hybrid-cloud-workshop
```

To start provisioning the workshop, run `workshop-create.py` and pass in your workshop directory

```
python workshop-create.py --dir ~/myworkshop
```

When you are finished with the workshop you can destroy it using `workshop-destroy.py`

```
python workshop-destroy.py --dir ~/myworkshop
```
