Bluesky PDS on AWS by FOSSonCloud is a custom AMI + open-source AWS CloudFormation template that provisions a production-ready, AWS infrastructure solution for deploying Bluesky Personal Data Server (PDS).
Overview
Bluesky PDS on AWS by FOSSonCloud is an open-source AWS CloudFormation template that offers an easy-to-install AWS infrastructure solution for quickly deploying Bluesky Personal Data Server (PDS), using both AWS and Bluesky best practices.
Automatically configured to support auto-scaling through AWS Autoscaling Groups, this solution leverages an EBS volume to persist data. It configures SES with Easy DKIM for emails, and configures Route53 with convenient DNS entries.
The template ensures multi-level security by incorporating AWS IAM for federated access to resources with least privilege and AWS managed keys and Secrets Manager to manage secrets for encryption of data at rest and in transit.
Highlights
- Production-ready Bluesky PDS, with SES for outbound email and an EBS volume for persistent storage
- Integrated with AWS Certificate Manager for HTTPS support
- Logs in CloudWatch Logs, Remote access via Session Manager

CloudFormation Template v2.0.0
Bluesky PDS on AWS by FOSSonCloud deploys a production-ready Bluesky Personal Data Server using AWS best practices.
WHAT'S DEPLOYED
- VPC with public and private subnets (or use your existing VPC)
- Application Load Balancer with ACM certificate for HTTPS
- Auto Scaling Group running a single Bluesky PDS instance (Graviton / arm64)
- Persistent encrypted EBS data volume for SQLite database and blob storage
- SES domain identity with Easy DKIM for email delivery
- Route53 DNS records (apex + wildcard for handle resolution)
- CloudWatch Logs integration
- AWS Secrets Manager for credential storage (PDS JWT secret, admin password, PLC rotation key, SMTP password)
- IAM roles with least-privilege permissions
- SNS notification topic for stack events
REQUIREMENTS
- Route 53 hosted zone for DNS
- ACM certificate for HTTPS (must cover the apex hostname and the *. wildcard for user handles)
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."
Version release notes
- Upgrade Bluesky PDS from 0.4.74 to 0.4.219 (latest upstream)
- Rebrand to Bluesky PDS on AWS by FOSSonCloud (README + Marketplace product metadata)
- Add marketplace_config.yaml for the AWS Marketplace Catalog API workflow (plf_config.yaml is deprecated)
- Bump devenv image 2.5.3 to 2.8.3 (Ubuntu 24.04 / Python 3.12 / PEP 668)
- Bump aws-cdk-lib 2.120.0 to 2.225.0
- Bump oe-patterns-cdk-common 4.1.9 to 4.5.0
- Switch CloudFormation AMI parameter from AsgAmiId to AsgAmiIdv200 (versioned parameter convention) so stack updates surface AMI changes correctly
- docker-compose.yml now mounts ~/.aws and forwards AWS_PROFILE (matches mastodon/discourse/open-webui)
- Add test/integration/ smoke-test suite: /xrpc/_health, com.atproto.server.describeServer, .well-known/atproto-did PHP handler, SSL handshake, CloudFormation + EC2 sanity checks
- Drop the legacy generated_ami_ids regional map and AWSAMIRegionMap CfnMapping -- AWS Marketplace Catalog API now handles multi-region AMI replication automatically
- Drop stale VpcId / VpcPrivateSubnet*Id / VpcPublicSubnet*Id / AsgDataVolumeSnapshot from the Makefile deploy target (the IDs no longer exist; CDK creates a fresh VPC)
- Add CLAUDE.md documenting blueskypds-specific conventions
Migration notes
- Existing subscribers updating an in-place stack from 1.0.0 must update the parameter name in their stack-update wizard from AsgAmiId to AsgAmiIdv200. CloudFormation treats this as a real parameter change so the AMI swap is correctly applied.
- No data-format or upstream config breaking changes between PDS 0.4.74 and 0.4.219 -- pds.env shape is unchanged and the SQLite + blob store on the EBS data volume are read by the new image as-is.
Additional details
Usage instructions
Run the stack, providing valid parameters. When the stack creation completes, go to the outputs of the stack and open the URL in your browser. To create the initial user account, connect to the EC2 instance via Session Manager and run sudo pdsadmin account create. All Bluesky PDS data (SQLite database, blob store) lives on the encrypted EBS data volume that persists across instance replacement. For more detailed instructions, see the GitHub project.
