Relocate Pearl Infrastructure

[idiom-bytes]

Problem

• Pearl needs support to move infrastructure to Web3/DAO-friendly jurisdiction
• Currently this limits various functionality & features from being developed

Outline

Ocean Pearl infrastructure

1. oceanpearl.io domain
   1. Cloudflare
2. Heroku $7 each/mo
   1. Frontend
   2. Backend
   3. Frontend-staging
   4. Backend-staging
3. AWS - variable pricing
   1. S3 Bucket for uploaded images
   2. Cloudfront CDN to deliver images
4. MongoDB Atlas
   1. Shared M2 AWS based cluster - PROD $9/mo
   2. Shared M0 AWS based cluster - Staging $0/mo
5. Plausible.io tracking - €60 / yr (scales with tracked actions)
6. Infura API (free)
7. GitHub
   1. ​ ocean-tech-ship / ocean-pearl
   2. ​ ocean-tech-ship / ocean-pearl-api
   3. ​ oceanpearlio / open-proposal-standard

DOD

• [ ] Define where infrastructure will live
• [ ] Make required preparations (account, payment, etc...) for infrastructure migration
• [ ] Migrate infrastructure

[idiom-bytes]

Complete DAO migration first.

• Perhaps this task may not be required.
• Perhaps we can simply integrate ourselves to the current account/structure & help provide ops.
• Review task after 387 is delivered.

Perhaps we can simply integrate ourselves to the current account/structure & help provide ops.

Parts of migrating Pearl will involve admin (creating accounts, migrating ownership, etc...) and others will include creating providing ops. Here is what that breakdown looks like generally.

1. oceanpearl.io domain
   1. Cloudflare - Part Admin P art Technical. Needs to migrate the domain from Albert.. Need to create new account + an account to where we can migrate the domain to. - Sebastian - Albert (domain migration)
2. Heroku $7 each/mo - Mostly Admin. OPF creates account and Pearl switches who owns/pays for it. - Marcel
   1. Frontend
   2. Backend
   3. Frontend-staging
   4. Backend-staging
3. AWS - variable pricing - Admin + Technical. Permissions: R/W to bucket. Cloudfront is private, and we access all pictures via CDN. - Sebastian
   1. S3 Bucket for uploaded images
   2. Cloudfront CDN to deliver images
4. MongoDB Atlas - DB Service w/ MongoDB | Protection / Backup /etc... Mostly Admin - Create a new account that is not linked to you, but owned by OPF. - Sebastian
   1. Shared M2 AWS based cluster - PROD $9/mo
   2. Shared M0 AWS based cluster - Staging $0/mo
5. Plausible.io tracking - €60 / yr (scales with tracked actions) - Mostly Admin - Create OPF Account/Change Owner - Sebastian
6. Infura API (free) - Mostly Admin
7. GitHub Actions - Admin + Technical - Marcel
   1. ​ ocean-tech-ship / ocean-pearl
   2. ​ ocean-tech-ship / ocean-pearl-api
   3. ​ oceanpearlio / open-proposal-standard

Next Steps:

1. Godaddy for oceanpearl.io domain migration => reach out to Albert and transfer to Berkay [email protected]
2. AWS for S3 und cloudfront => Alex Coseru + Trent
3. Heroku for Prod und DEV => Alex Coseru + Trent (if we need account, then create)
4. MongoDB Atlas for DBs (https://account.mongodb.com/account/register ) => We don't need to use Atlas, let's leverage AWS MongoDB.

This is less urgent:

• for the effort involved, not sure if it's worth it to relocate. The main benefit was a "invest" button
• and in the meantime (May and June 2022) Germany has become much more crypto friendly, including tax, maybe more to come

We can delay this indefinitely
