    This section describes the processes for from your EC2 console.

    Before taking the steps described in this section, open the Launching Jaspersoft for AWS page, on the Jaspersoft Community website:

    http://community.jaspersoft.com/jaspersoft-aws/launch

    This web page includes information you'll need for creating and launching your instance.

    Select the option that applies to your set-up:

    Create a Jaspersoft AMI instance in an EC2 Classic environment, see Creating a JasperReports Server Instance from a Jaspersoft CloudFormation Template
    Creating a Jaspersoft AMI instance with high availability, See Creating a JasperReports Server Instance with High Availability
    Create a Jaspersoft AMI instance in a VPC, see Creating a JasperReports Server Instance Inside a VPC
    Creating a High Availability JasperReports Server Instance Inside a VPC, see Creating a High Availability JasperReports Server Instance Inside a VPC

    The above methods use Jaspersoft's CloudFormation templates to generate an instance and its permissions and roles automatically, which gives you a secure and easy-to-maintain instance of the Jaspersoft BI.

    Launch a server manually in the EC2 console, see Creating a JasperReports Server Instance from the EC2 Console

    We don't recommend this method, because it doesn't provide the auto-connect feature for Amazon RDS and Redshift included with the CloudFormation templates. If you choose this method, and you're using a VPC, be sure to define that option during the setup process.

    Your Jaspersoft software is charged separately from the AWS EC2 instance charges. Please make sure you follow these instructions to turn off your EC2 instance server running Jaspersoft after use. If not, you will continue to be charged by the hour for EC2 use. Note that when you stop your EC2 instance server no one will have access to the reports or dashboards you've created until you restart the EC2 instance server. When you stop an EC2 instance server, you will still be charged the small EBS charge. If you don't want to be charged for EBS, make sure you terminate your EC2 instance server. Note that in this case none of your work will be retrievable, unless you are you're using a high availability instance..

    Creating a JasperReports Server Instance from a Jaspersoft CloudFormation Template

    A stack is a collection of AWS resources you create and delete as a single unit. Our CloudFormation template creates the following resources and bundles them into a usable stack:

    IAM role with permissions on RDS and Redshift
    EC2 instance with JasperReports Server installed, configured, and using the IAM role for appropriate credentials.

    To create a new JasperReports Server instance:

    1. Open the Launching Jaspersoft for AWS web page.
    2. Click the Launch Jaspersoft for AWS tab.
    3. Click the URL for your region. The Select Template page appears.

    Select Template page

    note-icon-ns_28x28.png.37e942a0c96e5d46c7ca51fd08930cf3.png

    It may be another few minutes before the JasperReports Server URL becomes available. If you get a message saying “Unable to Connect”, try again in a few minutes.

    13. Select your complete instance and click the Outputs tab. Here you'll find information you'll need when you're ready to log into JasperReports Server:
         The URL for Getting Started with JasperReports Server (Key: GettingStartedURL)
         The generated password (Key: Password).

    Creating a JasperReports Server Instance with High Availability

    Jaspersoft provides a high availability option using Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS). With high availability, your JasperReports Server instance provides a failover mechanism by storing your repository in an external database, so if something happens to your instance it will be replaced and connected to your existing repository. Our high availability options support the Amazon Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) and currently support PostgresSQL databases only. The following options are available:

    Automatic High Availability—This option doesn't support VPC, but the CloudFormation Template automatically creates an EC2 instance with Jaspersoft, Postgres RDS database, then automatically deploys your initial data.

    note-icon-ns_28x28.png.1ad1e90f9d1f9e211bd2cc24b0fbee8b.png

    Automatic high availability setup will create a Postgres RDS instance for which you will be charged by Amazon. To protect the Repository Database in Postgres RDS from failures, please modify it and enable Multi-AZ Deployment. Follow this link for more information: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/Concepts.MultiAZ.html

    Manual High Availability - non VPC—Automatically provides a failover mechanism, but you'll need to manually create and initialize your Postgres RDS or other Postgres database.
    Manual High Availability - with VPC—Automatically provides a failover mechanism, but you'll need to manually create and initialize your Postgres RDS or other Postgres database.

    Automatic High Availability

    To create a high availability instance to deploy automatically:

    1. Open the Launching Jaspersoft for AWS web page.
    2. Click the Launch Jaspersoft for AWS tab.
