Ipfs-cluster on AWS: multi-region, NixOS and Terraform powered

We worked with @marton to build out automation for IPFS Cluster, available under Apache2/MIT license on Github:

Deploys a multi-region DNS-balanced TLS-enabled network of ipfs-cluster nodes running on NixOS on AWS EC2 cloud servers using Terraform.

We’re increasingly fans of Nix and NixOS, and so is @marton, so we used that as the basis for this automation along with Terraform.

This is designed to be able to run automated IPFS clusters in multiple AWS regions around the world, and uses the Amazon S3 datastore plugin.
