Bitnami's Redmine Multi-Tier with Amazon RDS for MariaDB is a pre-configured, ready to run CloudFormation template for running Redmine on Amazon EC2 and Amazon RDS for MariaDB. Using Amazon RDS removes the overhead involved with managing database administration, backups, monitoring, scaling and replication of the database. Redmine is a very popular Rails-based open source bug tracker to help you manage issues and tasks for multiple projects. It is extremely flexible, features a built-in wiki, time tracking, custom fields, role-based access, SCM integration (including git), and support for multiple projects. This solution uses one virtual machine with the application front-end and Amazon Amazon RDS for MariaDB as a managed database. After deployment of this template, both the database and the front-end can be scaled individually.
