GBIF CESP 2018 demos

For the Madrid CESP 2018 workshop we have created an image that can be used to quickly start up a few ALA components.

These images are only intended for demonstration purposes. For production installation we recommend using the Ansible scripts with inventories for your environment.

The Amazon EC2 image

This can be used by logging into Amazon EC2 and searching for "livingatlases-cesp-madrid-feb2018" in the community AMIs in the Frankfurt data centre.

The recommended VM to use is t2.2xlarge ro equivalebt for the running the demo. The main requirement is a machine with 32GB of RAM as this demo runs a number of components/
