Prerequisites
Technical Skills Required
Knowledge about AWS Services is not required for deploying RainMaker. However, having familiarity with the AWS Management Console and AWS services like CloudFormation, CloudWatch, etc. will help.
Operating System and Other Requirements
RainMaker is deployed as SAR repositories. These SAR repositories are to be deployed from the AWS Management Console, which can be accessed from any Browser. Hence, there are no specific requirements for an Operating System.
Creating AWS Account
It is assumed that you have already created an AWS account and have Administrator privileges to deploy the RainMaker platform to this AWS account.
If you do not have an AWS account, use the below link for creating a new one -
( Click on the option - "Create an AWS Account" )
Please see the References section to Create/Activate and Login to the AWS account.
It is recommended not to use the root AWS account for the RainMaker deployment. Instead, please create a IAM user with Administrative privileges and use this user account for all further operations.
Getting access to RainMaker repositories for the AWS account
Before deploying the RainMaker Platform into your account, the RainMaker support team needs to provide access to your "AWS Account Number".
Please note down the AWS account ID and send a mail to the Espressif RainMaker team ( esp-rainmaker-support@espressif.com ) to provide access to RainMaker repositories.
The RainMaker team will provide access to the required RainMaker repositories.
Getting License
License is a requirement for ESP RainMaker to work.
Send a mail to the Espressif RainMaker team (esp-rainmaker-support@espressif.com) to get a License specific to your business requirements.
