Deploying Inferno

Deployments of Inferno are based on the Inferno Template. This template contains a docker-compose.yml file that can run all of the services inferno needs.

At a minimum, deploying Inferno involves the following:

• git clone the repository you want to deploy (or get it onto your server in some other way)
• run setup.sh to pull & build the needed docker images and run database migrations
• run docker compose up -d to start all of the services in the background

By default, a deployment of Inferno includes the following services:

• nginx - A reverse proxy which handles sending requests to the correct services
• inferno - The inferno web process which serves Inferno’s static assets and the JSON API
• worker - The inferno web process which executes the tests
• redis - Message broker that handles communication between the inferno web and worker processes
• hl7_validator_service - A JSON API wrapper around the HL7 FHIR validator which Inferno uses to validate FHIR resources
