This document explains how to deploy InsightCloudSec quickly for evaluation purposes using Docker Compose. If you install InsightCloudSec locally, it should take less than 15 minutes to get up and running.

Value Names (DivvyCloud vs. InsightCloudSec)

Some components use our former product name (DivvyCloud vs. InsightCloudSec). Updates to the naming of these components will be communicated when changes are made, but note that the name difference does not affect functionality within the product.

Install Docker and Docker-Compose

First, you need to install Docker Community Edition For Mac.

❗️

Homebrew

The Homebrew version of Docker may run into issues with writing data to mounted volumes if permissions are not correctly configured. If you have installed the Homebrew version of Docker and have run into any issues, it is recommended that you uninstall it and install the version available from the Docker store.

Starting the InsightCloudSec Environment with Docker Compose

First open a terminal session and create a working folder under your home directory using the following commands:

mkdir ~/divvycloud; cd ~/divvycloud

Download the environment variables and docker-compose file for running the InsightCloudSec Environment:

cd ~/divvycloud
curl -sO https://s3.amazonaws.com/get.divvycloud.com/compose/prod.env
curl -s https://s3.amazonaws.com/get.divvycloud.com/compose/docker-compose.apache.db-local.yml -o docker-compose.yml

Update the docker-compose file to only run 2 worker containers instead of 8. If you run 8, it'll overload the laptop.

sed -i'.original' -e 's/scale:\ 8/scale:\ 2/g' docker-compose.yml

Now you are ready to start InsightCloudSec. Run this with the -d flag to run as a daemon. this will be more performant on your laptop.

docker-compose up -d

Logging into InsightCloudSec

After InsightCloudSec has completed its launch, you can connect via browser using port 8001, e.g., http://localhost:8001.

The first page you see is an administrator account creation page. On the page, you enter your name and email address and create a userid and password. Your userid can be any alphanumeric. Your password must be at least 12 characters in length.

Next, you login with the administrator account credentials you just created.

Stop InsightCloudSec with Docker Compose

When your evaluation is over (we hope you enjoyed it!) and you’re ready to stop, use:

docker-compose down

Using a Proxy Server

If you wish to use a proxy server for your Test Drive, you will need to add your proxy information to your:

1. System’s environment variables before your installation and
2. InsightCloudSec environment variables after your installation
