Introduction
We use a an Ubuntu image using Docker to deploy Panintelligence containers. This allows the dashboard to use good features from docker such as health checks and self healing properties. We have a predefined docker-compose YAML script built into the AMI that deploys the dashboard.

Environment file | Container | Description |
|---|---|---|
dashboard.env | dashboard | You will need to specify the external database credentials and Licence Ke, if you’re using “Panintelligence BYOL No Repo Database”. |
scheduler.env | scheduler | You will need to specify the external database credentials if you’re using “Panintelligence BYOL No Repo Database”. |
pirana.env | pirana | |
excel-reader.env | excel-reader | |
renderer.env | renderer | |
database.env | database | All Paintelligence Panintelligence products have an inbuilt “MariaDB” container for the Dashboard. If you’re using “Panintelligence BYOL No Repo Database”, Please specify your external database credentials you are using. |
...
You can create your own volume paths if you wish, you will have to change the environment variables in “/var/panintelligence/.env”env".
Environment variable | Default path | Description |
|---|---|---|
| /var/panintelligence/keys | The security keys between the container. |
| /var/panintelligence/excel | To store excel files that you want to use inside the dashboard. |
| /var/panintelligence/themes | To store the themes for the dashboard. |
| /var/panintelligence/images | To store the images for the dashboard. |
| /var/panintelligence/logs | To store all the logs from the dashboard container. You will look in this volume to view any logs. |
| /var/panintelligence/data | Keeps a backup of your database container if you’re using it within the EC2 instance. |
...
To ensure the Panintelligence dashboard service is running when you start the AMI instance. We are using “panintelligence.service”, which ensures that the docker is enabled and the docker-compose scripts are running. If you wish to change the service on how it starts you can change it here:
“/etc/systemd/system/panintelligence.service“service"

If you are a member of our private docker hub repository, You can also change the tags within the “/var/panintelligence/.env” env" and reboot the service for the latest docker container tags.
