+DeepChem Infrastructure
+=======================
+
+The DeepChem project maintains supporting infrastructure on a number of
+different services. This infrastructure is maintained by the DeepChem
+development team.
+
+Github
+------
+The core DeepChem repositories are maintained in the `deepchem`_ GitHub organization.
+
+.. _`deepchem`: https://github.com/deepchem
+
+DeepChem developers have write access to the repositories on this repo and technical steering committee members have admin access.
+
+Travis CI
+---------
+DeepChem runs continuous integration tests on `Travis CI`_.
+
+.. _`Travis CI`: https://travis-ci.org/github/deepchem
+
+
+Dockerhub
+---------
+DeepChem hosts nightly docker build instances on `dockerhub`_.
+
+.. _`dockerhub`: https://hub.docker.com/r/deepchemio/deepchem
+
+PyPi
+----
+DeepChem hosts major releases and nightly builds on `pypi`_.
+
+.. _`pypi`: https://pypi.org/project/deepchem/
+
+Amazon Web Services
+-------------------
+
+DeepChem's website infrastructure is all managed on AWS through different AWS
+services. All DeepChem developers have access to these services through the
+deepchem-developers IAM role. (An IAM role controls access permissions.) At
+present, @rbharath is the only developer with access to the IAM role, but
+longer term we should migrate this so other folks have access to the roles.
+
+S3
+^^
+
+Amazon's S3 allows for storage of data on "buckets" (Think of buckets like folkers.) There are two core deepchem S3 buckets:
+
+  - deepchemdata: This bucket hosts the deepchem.io website, MoleculeNet datasets, pre-featurized datasets, and pretrained models. This bucket is set up to host a static website (at `static`_).
+  - deepchemforum: This bucket hosts backups for the forums. The bucket is private for security reasons. The forums themselves are hosted on a digital ocean instance that only @rbharath currently has access to. Longer term, we should migrate the forums onto AWS so all DeepChem developers can access the forums. The forums themselves are a discord instance. The forums upload their backups to this S3 bucket once a day. If the forums crash, they can be restored from the backups in this bucket
+
+.. _`static`: https://deepchemdata.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/index.html
+
+Route 53
+^^^^^^^^
+DNS for the deepchem.io website is handled by Route 53. The "hosted zone"
+deepchem.io holds all DNS information for the website.
+
+Certificate Manager
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+The AWS certificate manager issues the SSL/TLS certificate for the
+\*.deepchem.io and deepchem.io domains.
+
+
+Cloudfront
+^^^^^^^^^^
+We make use of a cloudfront distribution to serve our static website. The
+cloudfront distribution connects to the certificate in Certificate Manager and
+uses the deepchemdata bucket as the origin domain. We set CNAME for
+www.deepchem.io and deepchem.io
+
+GoDaddy
+-------
+The deepchem.io domain is registered with GoDaddy. If you change the name
+servers in AWS Route 53, you will need to update the GoDaddy record. At
+present, only @rbharath has access to the GoDaddy account that owns the
+deepchem.io domain name. We should explore how to provide access to the domain
+name for other DeepChem developers.
+
+Digital Ocean
+-------------
+The forums are hosted on a digital ocean instance. At present, only @rbharath
+has access to this instance. We should migrate this instance onto AWS so other
+DeepChem developers can help maintain the forums.
