Multi-Region Global Accelerator

This project consists of Pulumi IaC that is meant to automate the creation of a multi-regional website that uses AWS Global Accelerator.

Requirements

1. Nodejs
2. Pulumi

Prerequisite

You must configure the stacks to use for the web servers in each region. In this example, I am using my own personal sandbox AWS account and stacks. You should replace them with your own via the following commands:

1. cd accelerator
2. pulumi config set westStack aiell0/global-accelerator-demo/webserver-west
3. pulumi config set europeStack aiell0/global-accelerator-demo/webserver-eu.

Deploy

1. cd frontend
2. pulumi stack select webserver-eu
3. pulumi up
4. pulumi stack select webserver-west
5. pulumi up
6. cd ..
7. cd accelerator
8. pulumi up

Destroy

1. cd accelerator
2. pulumi destroy
3. cd ..
4. cd frontend
5. pulumi stack select webserver-eu
6. pulumi destroy
7. pulumi stack select webserver-west
8. pulumi destroy

There is a bug with Pulumi where you can't delete the VPCs if they were created using Pulumi Crosswalk. A Github Issue has been created to track it. For now, just go in and delete the VPC manually if it does time out, and resume the destroy.
