Hi, I just released this new dating site built in Ruby on Rails called http://moredating.com. I was wondering if you guys could check it out and provide any feedback you may have. I''m especially interested in any security flaws that you may find, and any suggestions you may have regarding SEO, URL schemes, etc... The site is running on EC2, uses enterprise ruby and passenger. I''m really happy with the performance so far, but it''s not been heavily taxed yet. If there is a more appropriate forum to get feedback than this one, please let me know. Cheers. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I would be interested in some of the cost particulars as well as the technical HOWTO. We''ve been trying to estimate what it would cost to have an app up 24/7 on EC2, but every time we run the numbers using Amazon''s published pricing we come up with a different result. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

A small instance using a 100GB ESB and storing all of our collateral on S3 (including db backups) runs around $80-$90 per month. So far it''s been rock solid and performs comparably with a similar sized dedicated box we had about 18 months ago (ditched to go to EC2). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hello all, I''ll be writing something tonight about the whole experience. On the whole, I couldn''t be happier with all of Amazon''s offerings :) On Feb 3, 1:58 pm, tatyree <taty...-gM/Ye1E23mwN+BqQ9rBEUg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > We''re running a flirting site (http://www.flirtanywhere.comhttp://flirtanywhere.mobi), on EC2 using a slightly modded version of > > ec2onrails (the ami is modded, not the gem).

OK, so I have written part 1 of my deploying to EC2. It''s at http://blog.developergurus.com/2009/02/04/rails-passenger-ubuntu-and-ec2-part-1/ I was going to write part 2 today, but don''t think I will. Has to be on Saturday :) Please let me know if you want me to elaborate on anything in there.
