This is Huge! EC2 has made provisioning hardware and OS's stupid simple but building a rock solid stack is still beyond most people.
Now you can use supported production stacks, for instance https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B0078VKDDI/ref=brs_res_product_title https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B0078VKDDI/ref=brs_res... is a supported Rails production stack its secure and has an SLA... This is a big deal.
- alexchamberlain 14y agoAs in my other comment, they are using an old version of Nginx.
- floydprice 14y agoMy point is more general than that specific stack, the concept of one click deployment stacks which are built by Sys-Admins and have support is a big deal.
- alexchamberlain 14y agoAs is mine. This is a great move by Amazon, but there is a huge security risk if the community doesn't squeeze out bad practice.
