===== Cloud Provisioning =====

Manual provisioning of the droplet at digital ocean. Going to try 2GB, 2CPU droplet for starts at $18 per month.

Domain name is provisioned using our terraform repo at [[https://github.com/merri-bek-tech/infra-terraform-cloud|merri-bek-tech/infra-terraform-cloud]].

===== Service Provisioning =====

We are using the [[https://github.com/merri-bek-tech/mastodon-ansible|merri-bek-tech/mastodon-ansible]] repository of ansible scripts, which is formed from the official mastodon one. The form allows us to make changes and then rebase in on updates from upstream.
