The editing in draft mode is getting a bit wonky so I am publishing prematurely. Hopefully the wonkiness, love that word, will abate. For those up for reviewing and providing feedback, thanks in advance.

So you want to use AWS’s Amazon S3 for storage, Cloudfront for CDNs and ??? Hopefully this guide be helpful when configuring a need improvement here. Please let us know if something needs an adjustment, an improvement, or does not make sense.

Getting Started

You will need:

  1. A self hosted Discourse instance with app.yml access
  2. AWS account
  3. ???

Naming Strategy

There are many places to make mistakes. Using a naming convention strategy that makes sense to you and perhaps others will help you with troubleshooting especially if you are configuring multiple Discourse instances.

  • IAM user: your-iam-user
  • Policy: s3-discourse-policy-your-iam-user
  • Backups bucket: yourdomain-subdomain-backups
  • Uploads bucket: yourdomain-subdomain-uploads
  • Distribution CDNs: cdn-yourdomain-subdomain and s3-yourdomain-subdomain-uploads

Optional: Configuration process bucket: a-origin-config-bucket

AWS Configuration

Use the default settings in the AWS configuration pages unless instructed to do otherwise.

S3 Names, names, names

  • Discourse instance domain: subdomain.yourdomain.tld (subdomain.yourdomain.tld including www.yourdomain.tld)
  • IAM user: yourdomain-subdomain (yourdomain-discourse, yourdomain-forum or Discourse in apex/root: yourdomain-tld-www )
  • Policy for IAM user: s3-discourse-policy-yourdomain-subdomain
  • Uploads bucket: yourdomain-subdomain-uploads Note: Don’t forget to set “Everyone (public access)” to “Read” in Bucket>Permissions: Access control list-(ACL) Access control list (ACL)-Grantee.
  • Backups bucket: yourdomain-subdomain-backups
  • Distribution CDNs: cdn-yourdomain-subdomain and s3-yourdomain-subdomain-uploads
  • Configuration process bucket: a-origin-config-bucket

You can see how this strategy works in a real world example:

IAM Users

  1. Go to IAM > Users > Select “Create user” https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home?region=us-east-1#/users/create
  2. IAM > Users > Create user > Specify user details > User details > User name > Enter name i.e. your-iam-user > Select “Next”
  3. IAM > Users > Create user > Set permissions > Permissions options > Select “Attach policies directly” > Select “Create policy” > Opens Create policy page (Alternatively the policy can be created first in Policies then selected when creating the user in “Permissions policies”.)
  4. IAM > Users > Create user > Set permissions > Permissions policies > Filter by Type dropdown selector > Select “Customer managed” > Select the newly created policy > Select “Next” > Select “Create user”
  5. IAM > Users > your-iam-user > Security credentials > Access keys > Select “Create access key”
  6. IAM > Users > your-iam-user > Create access key > Access key best practices & alternatives > Select “Other” > Select “Next”
  7. IAM > Users > your-iam-user > Create access key > Set description tag > Select “Create access key”
  8. IAM > Users > your-iam-user > Create access key > Retrieve access keys > Safely save Access key and Secret access key for use in Discourse app.yml > Select “Done”

Policies

  1. Modify s3-discourse-policy-your-iam-user.txt with your IAM user name and bucket names.
  2. Go to IAM > Policies > Create policy
  3. IAM > Policies > Create policy > Specify permissions > Policy editor > Select “JSON” in Policy editor > Copy policy from s3-discourse-policy-your-iam-user.txt and paste into JSON editor copying over existing JSON > Select “Next”
  4. IAM > Policies > Create policy > Review and create > Policy details > Policy name > Enter Policy name i.e. s3-discourse-policy-your-iam-user > Select “Next”
  5. Go to IAM Users : 4. IAM > Users > Create user to continue the create user process

Discourse Configuration

Current as of Discourse version: 2025.12.0-latest

Make these changes in Discourse Admin UI

Backups Settings /admin/backups/settings

  1. Maximum backups > Enter the number of backups to keep locally
  2. Backup with uploads > Select “Include uploads in scheduled backups. Disabling this will only backup the database.”

S3 Settings /admin/site_settings/category/all_results?filter=S3

  1. S3 use CDN URL for all uploads > Select “Use CDN URL for all the files uploaded to s3 instead of only for images.” (Discourse ships deselected)

Edit Config (app.yml) Unbranded URLs

Edit the app.yml making the changes below for branded URLs or unbranded Cloudfront URLs.

Discourse Unbranded URLs

Use this for unbranded Cloudfront distributions. Your DISCOURSE_S3_REGION might be different.
DISCOURSE_CDN_URL: https://amazonassigned.cloudfront.net

S3 storage config (unbranded)

## S3 storage config
DISCOURSE_USE_S3: true
DISCOURSE_S3_REGION:  us-east-1
DISCOURSE_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID: key obfuscated
DISCOURSE_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: key obfuscated
DISCOURSE_S3_CDN_URL: https://amazonassigned.cloudfront.net
DISCOURSE_S3_BUCKET: your-bucket-name-uploads
DISCOURSE_S3_BACKUP_BUCKET: your-bucket-name-backups
DISCOURSE_BACKUP_LOCATION: s3

Discourse Branded URLs

DNS Configuration

If you prefer to use yourdomain.com based URLs for the CDNs you need to make some DNS changes and adjust your CDN URLs.

Tip: Don’t forget to add discourse-cdn.yourdomain.com and s3-cdn.yourdomain.com as a domain name in “Alternate domain names” for their respective Cloudfront distributions.

DNS config if you want to use domain branded Cloudfront distributions.

DISCOURSE_CDN_URL

Existing record:	A   discourseinstance.yourdomain.com   instance ip  Note: This is the existing Discourse install ip.
New record:		A   discourse-cdn-cloudfront.yourdomain.com   instance ip
New record: 		CNAME discourse-cdn.yourdomain.com  ->   amazonassigned.cloudfront.net

DISCOURSE_S3_CDN_URL

New record:		CNAME s3-cdn-cloudfront.yourdomain.com  ->   amazonassigned.cloudfront.net
New record: 	CNAME  s3-cdn.yourdomain.com  ->   s3-cdn-cloudfront.yourdomain.com

Edit Config (app.yml) Branded URLs

Once the DNS changes are complete you can edit your app.yml making the changes below.

Change DISCOURSE_CDN_URL and/or DISCOURSE_S3_CDN_URL if you are using domain CNAMES for the Cloudfront distribution (amazonassigned.cloudfront.net).

DISCOURSE_CDN_URL: https://discourse-cdn.yourdomain.com

S3 storage config (branded)

## S3 storage config
DISCOURSE_USE_S3: true
DISCOURSE_S3_REGION:  us-east-1
DISCOURSE_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID: key obfuscated
DISCOURSE_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: key obfuscated
DISCOURSE_S3_CDN_URL: https://s3-cdn.yourdomain.com
DISCOURSE_S3_BUCKET: your-bucket-name-uploads
DISCOURSE_S3_BACKUP_BUCKET: your-bucket-name-backups
DISCOURSE_BACKUP_LOCATION: s3

Additional Config Edits (app.yml)

Regardless of which approach you use, branded or Cloudfront URLs, you will need the after_assets_precompile section below to ensure things stay updated during subsequent rebuilds.

  hooks:
    after_code:
      - exec:
          cd: $home/plugins
          cmd:
            - git clone https://github.com/discourse/docker_manager.git
            -you may have more plugins
    after_assets_precompile:
      - exec:
          cd: $home
          cmd:
            - sudo -E -u discourse bundle exec rake s3:upload_assets
            - sudo -E -u discourse bundle exec rake s3:expire_missing_assets

Rebuild your instance with ./launcher rebuild app

After ./launcher rebuild app completes successfully do these rakes.

./launcher enter app

rake posts:rebake
rake uploads:migrate_to_s3
rake posts:rebake_uncooked_posts

rake s3:upload_assets
rake s3:expire_missing_assets

If the rakes complete without errors then you are good to go.

On some sites the initial rebuild will fail with an error relating to s3:upload_assets. If this happens,

check “read” setting on uploads bucket. If correctly set then,

comment out or remove the after_assets_precompile section:

  after_assets_precompile:
      - exec:
          cd: $home
          cmd:
            - sudo -E -u discourse bundle exec rake s3:upload_assets
            - sudo -E -u discourse bundle exec rake s3:expire_missing_assets

and run ./launcher rebuild app again. Then run “rake s3:upload_assets” and “rake s3:expire_missing_assets”.

If both of the rakes complete without errors then re-add or uncomment the after_assets_precompile section, rebuild again and do the all the rakes listed above.

If either of the rakes give an error or the rebuild fails again you have something wrong in your app.yml and/or AWS S3 configs and/or DNS records. Happy hunting! :slight_smile:

Réponse du Support AWS concernant : Confirmation de l’approche dans la règle de nettoyage

J’ai examiné la configuration de votre règle de cycle de vie proposée, et je suis heureux de confirmer que votre configuration est bien conçue et suit les meilleures pratiques AWS pour la gestion des buckets de sauvegarde.

========== Évaluation de la règle de cycle de vie ==========

Votre configuration est excellente et couvre les domaines clés pour le nettoyage des sauvegardes :

• Nettoyage des versions non actuelles (92 jours) : Il s’agit d’une période de rétention judicieuse qui équilibre les coûts de stockage et les besoins de récupération. La rétention de 92 jours laisse amplement le temps de valider les sauvegardes tout en empêchant l’accumulation indéfinie de stockage.

• Suppression des marqueurs de suppression expirés : Correctement configuré pour nettoyer automatiquement les marqueurs de suppression orphelins, ce qui contribue à optimiser les coûts de stockage et les performances du bucket.

• Nettoyage des téléchargements multiparties incomplets (3 jours) : Le réglage de 3 jours est optimal - assez court pour éviter le gaspillage de stockage dû aux téléchargements échoués, mais assez long pour accueillir les opérations de sauvegarde volumineuses légitimes.

• Application de la portée : L’application à « tous les objets du bucket » est appropriée pour les buckets de sauvegarde dédiés où tout le contenu suit le même modèle de cycle de vie.

Réponse du Support AWS concernant : Configuration du cycle de vie des buckets de sauvegarde

Examen de la configuration du cycle de vie S3 pour les buckets de sauvegarde

J’ai analysé votre configuration complète du cycle de vie et je peux confirmer que votre règle de « rétention de sauvegarde » est bien structurée et suit les meilleures pratiques AWS pour la gestion des sauvegardes.

Principales conclusions de mon enquête :

  • Votre bucket possède deux règles de cycle de vie complémentaires qui fonctionnent ensemble efficacement
  • La règle de « rétention de sauvegarde » gère correctement les versions actuelles et non actuelles avec des calendriers appropriés
  • La configuration comprend des transitions de stockage rentables pour les versions non actuelles
  • Tous les composants de la règle sont correctement configurés avec des paramètres de temporisation appropriés
  • Le bucket est correctement configuré dans us-east-1 avec les autorisations appropriées

Évaluation de la configuration :

Votre règle de « rétention de sauvegarde » gère efficacement vos objets de sauvegarde tout au long de leur cycle de vie :

  • Transitionne les versions non actuelles vers Glacier Instant Retrieval après 1 jour (optimisation des coûts)
  • Expirer les versions actuelles après 7 jours (approprié pour les sauvegardes régulières)
  • Supprime définitivement les versions non actuelles après 91 jours (bonne période de rétention)

Cette règle complète votre règle de « nettoyage » qui gère :

  • La suppression des marqueurs de suppression expirés (empêche les marqueurs orphelins)
  • Le nettoyage des téléchargements multiparties incomplets après 3 jours (prévient le gaspillage de stockage)
  • La suppression des versions non actuelles après 92 jours (assure un nettoyage complet)

Les deux règles s’appliquent à tous les objets du bucket, ce qui est approprié pour le stockage de sauvegarde dédié où tout le contenu suit le même modèle de cycle de vie.

L’expiration de 7 jours pour les versions actuelles semble appropriée pour les scénarios de sauvegarde réguliers, mais vous pouvez l’ajuster en fonction de vos exigences de rétention spécifiques (15 ou 30 jours si une rétention plus longue est nécessaire).

Votre implémentation est complète et suit les meilleures pratiques AWS pour la gestion du cycle de vie S3.
