Cloud Computing and Rails are a natural good fit. With tools provided by New Relic integrated into the RightScale Deployment and Monitoring platform you have a Best Practice Monitoring system. I Deploy and Watch servers all day as part of the http://myCloudWatcher.com service. When I started to build the demo for this next RightScale Webinar I learned more about my application in the first few hours with th...

A search of this forum for "cloud" brought up a pretty anemic and mostly year or more old list of stuff. That was a bit of a surprise to me. I''m interested in getting opinions on the easiest way to deploy a Rails app to a well known (S3 or similar) "cloud" server. It should be something with little or no "installation" or "establishment" fees and

I see one mention in the forums of someone using the CentOS5Web AMI, but I can't find anything about its provenance.

...since 09/06/2007, and there have had a public script out for it, you can check us out in the Amazon catalog here: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry!default.jspa?categoryID=208&externalID=1901&fromSearchPage=true. This also has a build script here: http://s3.amazonaws.com/rightscale_scripts/CentOS5_2V4_0_2_Beta.sh, if you want to roll your own. If anyone needs any help or has any question on this shoot me an email.

Searching through the archives, it seems this topic has come up several times in the past 2.5 years. Did anyone ever take on the tasks of creating an official CentOS AMI? We're currently using the RightScale ones, but I think it'd be ideal to have a clean CentOS AMI with the current kernels. Karanbir, you seem to have been the one on CentOS side who has had the most conversations with Amazon. Is that conversation dead? If we had a small committee with members from this list, would that help in a...

.... I''m getting ready to move that to a master-slave setup. I''m also planning to use EBS volumes for the MySQL storage with snapshots saved to S3 for backup. Would love to hear from anybody who''s done any of this before. Also, I''ve been reading the stuff from Rightscale and they really seem to know what they''re doing. Anybody got any experience using their services? Thanks, Bill

Anyone successfully got CentOS6 running on EC2. We have bundled a pvgrub image but get to "Initialising Xen virtual ethernet driver." and the system stops outputting? -- Thanks, Richard Shade Integration Engineer RightScale - http://www.rightscale.com/ phone: 8055004164x1018 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

...tomations that deal with ebs volumes and file systems, such as volumes created, attached and mounted on the fly, snapshots that freeze file systems and so on... However, I really do think to myself: Wouldn't it be cleaner if the image use simple translation (sdX to xvdX)? If I'm not wrong, Rightscale uses this on their Centos images and it's much simpler. There's no extra work needed to deal with that 4 offset when you want to automate things. Is there a reasonable reason for the 4 offset which makes it unchangeable? It's just a thought. I think it's worth considering it.. L...

I''m putting together a file upload server using the merb upload progress stuff (nice!) and I wish there was a request_ends callback. Why? I need to do some processing of the file after the upload (like pushing it to Amazon S3 in the back) and I''d like to continue providing user feedback through the progress HTTP requests The nicest way to do that would be to leverage the
