We’re looking to move to amazon cloud using EC2 and RDS.
I’m looking at load balancing, which I would like to do, two servers, each in a different availability zone to protect against downtime.
My question is how to deploy web applications and updates to them? I assume there is a better way than individually updating the files on each EC2 server?
In systems past, I have used the vcs puppet module to ensure that the appropriate source code is installed on my system, in addition to using puppet to build the configuration files for the apache/nginx server that I’m using. Another possibility is to push your application in a deployable state (if you’re not using a scripting language) to Amazon S3, and have your run-time scripts pull the latest build from your S3 bucket.
