- FF persistent distributed storage for files via http post/get, high latency
- FF servers
- FF low latency, permanent storage, but not multi datacenter

- ERIC
- ERIC multiple front ends master/slave database dedicated edit server ebs mounted filesystems (files & db) sync files to front ends every minute not ideal for large number of logged-in users
- FF It is important to note that your deployment in cloud scenarios is often “developed” in much the same way your site is developed and it requires time, testing, review, etc. DO not underestimate this amount of time.
- command line, aws console, puppet, etc.
- EJ
- EJ The one sentence summary is that the current EC2 console is a control panel that gives you access to all EC2 functions while RightScale is a complete management platform to design, deploy, and manage the life-cycle of mission critical cloud deployments.
- EJ Leading provider of mangement console for entire server deployment environment. Their onsole

- EJ extract the variations and things that are required to be unique and provide them as input.
- EJ done based on deployments. server + templates = deployment deployments only vary based on the inputs given to make these diff envs, just clone your deployment
- FF test the hell out of it. This is where a ton of your work developing the deployment applies
- FF you need sysadmin skills on staff, or cloud management. Depends on the usage profile of your site, kernel requirements, etc.
