The problem is IP address

Post #374,431 by malraux 5/1/13 10:43:35 AM 5/4/13 2:08:41 PM Reply	The problem is IP address In AWS a new instance will come up with a different IP then it had before, unless you're using VPC and managing IP addresses manually (or scripted preferably). But instead of doing a bunch of autodiscovery crap and copying tarballs everywhere, just change the underlying instance image once, run your deploy tests on that maintenance image, and then simply restart all the active VMs to get the new stuff.

Most (if not all) of the major configuration management tools support AWS out of the box as well. They have a free account level that provides a single instance, DB, load balancer, pretty much everything in the product catalog free for a year if you feel like playing around with it.
