h1. The ungleich Matrix infrastructure

*%{color:red}This document concerns the infrastructure side of our MaaS offer and is intended for ungleich staff. See [[Ungleich Matrix-as-a-Service (MaaS)]] page for end-user/customer documentation.%*

h2. Status

This document is *A DRAFT*. This service is not in production.

h2. Overview

Our Matrix deployments make use of the "Synapse (reference) Matrix homeserver":https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/ and "Riot web client":https://about.riot.im/. We use Debian buster as base Operating system, leveraging the "matrix-synapse package from the buster-backports repository":https://packages.debian.org/buster-backports/matrix-synapse. The riot client (= static files) is directly fetched from "upstream releases on github":https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/releases.

h2. Tooling

The whole MaaS setup is defined in the *manifest/matrix-as-a-service* of *dot-cdist* file, which wraps the *__ungleich_matrix* type. This type leverages:

* *__matrix_synapse*

* *__matrix_riot*

* *__ungleich_nginx_static_type*

* *__postgres_role* and *__postgres_database* from upstream cdist.
