Production Environment
The production environment is the main environment that is used to serve the Elastic documentation. The documentation is a static site built with docs-builder.
URL | https://www.elastic.co/docs |
Terraform resources | https://github.com/elastic/docs-infra/tree/main/aws/elastic-web/us-east-1/elastic-docs-v3-prod |
The production environment is an S3 bucket served by CloudFront defined by the elastic-docs-v3 terraform module.
However, infront of the CloudFront distribution, Fastly is used to serve the site.
The reason is that Web team is using Fastly to serve the website and they are redirecting
the /docs
path to our CloudFront distribution.
The production environment is deployed by the Assembler Build and Deploy workflow.
