# AWS Deployments

Explore the comprehensive guide to deploying BlueRock instances on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Choose a preferred method to get started:

### [AWS Deployment with CLI](/deployment-guides/aws-deployments/aws-deployment-with-cli.md)

The implementation process begins by establishing access controls and storage infrastructure through configuring trust policies, attaching least-privilege IAM policies to instance profiles, and provisioning a dedicated Amazon S3 bucket for node policy files and digital signatures. Once this foundational setup is complete, BlueRock EC2 instances are deployed and tagged using custom AMIs within designated network subnets, with instance profiles attached to secure node-level permissions. Finally, the service environment is configured by updating `bluerockd.toml` to integrate S3 transport protocols and manage OTEL collector services.

### [AWS Deployment with Terraform](/deployment-guides/aws-deployments/aws-deployment-using-terraform-template.md)

Learn step-by-step how to configure, manage, and deploy BlueRock instances with Terraform on AWS allowing better integration and resource management.

### [AWS Deployment with CloudFormation](/deployment-guides/aws-deployments/aws-deployment-with-cloud-formation-template.md)

With the capabilities of AWS CloudFormation to define and manage BlueRock resources on AWS. Utilize templates for seamless deployment and management, ensuring a structured and organized approach to cloud infrastructure.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bluerock.io/deployment-guides/aws-deployments.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
