Juli Meetup: AWS Deployment Mechanics [Workshop!] (JSUG #72)

AWS Deployment Mechanics - Philipp Krenn

In this workshop we will discuss the mechanics of a reliable, scalable, and cost-effective deployment on AWS. This includes how to structure your network (VPC), the use of auto-scaling groups, and how to work with storage like EBS, Glacier, S3, or instance storage. Additionally, we will talk about Elastic Load Balancers and their limitations, how to save money by using reserved or on-demand instances, and how to monitor your servers and applications. While we will show some possible solutions, this should be very interactive — tell us how and why you are doing things differently and we will discuss varying scenarios and experiences!
