@luposlip: ah, no, haven't looked at ECS in very much detail. scaling on beanstalk is very easy... but being able to leave AWS is not a goal for us

@alandipert: it’s not a goal in itself for me, but having the possibility is really valuable, and it seems to me it’s easier if using docker as compared to plain Beanstalk?

docker is definitely good, but you don't need ECS to use it - http://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/create_deploy_docker.html

right Also considering trying out Lambda, just for the heck of it (to begin with just for some time scheduled jobs)

we're also using that lol

after we went over the aws tipping point we're in a place where the best thing to do is leverage all their services maximally, even if it means we can never leave

speaking of, time to go to work, bbl

😉 Later!

Howdy aws clojure peeps

Thought this article was a pretty good overview … although be careful because if you’re like me, you’ll have to read all about the aws services you didn’t know about: https://www.expeditedssl.com/aws-in-plain-english

Has anyone deployed immutant to AWS? Wondering if elasticbeanstalk is an option or not

hm, last i looked into it, the way to do immutant in AWS was to cluster in EC2

:thumbsup: Thanks. Doing that now.

altho @tcrawley might know better, and #C085AR8RE on freenode is usually hoppin'

We deploy Immutant to AWS without a cluster. We do not use Elastic Beanstalk.

Thanks @statonjr. That’s the way I’m going

are you using immutant messaging and cache stuff, or just the web bits?
