INFRASTRUCTURE

What it needs

• Compute: verified (Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.)
• Postgres: verified (Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.)
• S3-compatible object storage: verified (Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.)

Before you start

• A Next.js project (next build then next start -H 0.0.0.0 -p $PORT on the node-22 template)
• A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL (auto-provisioned when omitted)
• Bucket credentials from ample bucket create passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables
• A review of which property management data classes may be handled at all; this blueprint models public information only

How to do it

1. Model the property management domain
   Create the tables listings, agencies, maintenance_vendors, reports, document_access. Rental listings with publishing status lives in listings; keep the sensitive classes (tenant identity and payment history, inspection reports with personal data) out of this schema.

2. Workflow step 1
   Model vendors scoped to the agency with roles

3. Workflow step 2
   Authorize document access by vendor and role (401, 403 negative tests)

4. Workflow step 3
   Store vendor documents in the private bucket

5. Workflow step 4
   Deploy and verify the negative tests and an authorized download

6. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. Re-running with no change is a no-op.

   ample deploy . --name <app-name> --public --env S3_ENDPOINT=... --env S3_REGION=... --env S3_BUCKET=... --env S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=... --env S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=...

7. Verify
   Run the pattern self-test(s) from the example (/p/private-document-library) and your own acceptance checks for the property management workflow.

   ample logs <deployment_id> --kind build

Tested examples

• Next.js pattern fixture (tests/deploy-canaries/next-js-patterns): Verified private document library basis for this blueprint.

How to know it worked

• app responds on its public URL (/ on the live URL, expect ample canary next js patterns)
• private-document-library self-test from the example (/p/private-document-library on the live URL, expect see the pattern fixture checks)

Cost estimate

Estimated 10.00 USD per month (size prices from pricing.toml at build revision 515b7316fc6e5a81679407ae0c811146ceb2c5c7).

• app server x1 s-1vcpu-1gb: 5.00 USD
• managed PostgreSQL database x1 s-1vcpu-1gb: 5.00 USD

Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps and databases auto-pause when idle. Buckets are allocation-priced per quota and not included.

Verification evidence

• canary_run on 2026-09-21T02:34:39Z at revision 1d28ae0 (CLI 0.1.21): Next.js pattern fixture deployed on Ample (next build then next start -H 0.0.0.0 -p $PORT on the node-22 template); the private document library checks passed: a role-to-document access model with negative tests (401 without identity, 403 for the wrong role) and a private-bucket round-trip for the allowed role (private=ok). The blueprint's Property management schema and workflow below build on that verified basis and were not separately executed. (expires 2027-03-20T02:34:39Z)
