Question

I have realized that I have to make Image from EBS Volume everytime when I change my code

and following autoscaling configuration everytime (this is really bad).

I have heard that some people try to load their newest code from github or some similar sort of doing.

So that they can let server to have newest code automatically without making new image every single time.

I already have a private github.

Is it a only way to solve Auto-Scaling code management ?

If so, how can I configure this to work?

Use user-data scripts, which work on a lot of public images including Amazon’s. You could have it download puppet manifests/templates/files and run directly. Search for master less puppet.
