A few words about Amazon EC2

Filed under: Web Development @ 12:46 am

I’m still pretty impressed with EC2. A few friends are thinking about using it, so here’s a quick gathering of useful links:

  1. Get the EC2 Management Firefox extension
  2. Howto doc for the extension
  3. If you haven’t already setup your Amazon EC2 account and gotten the necessary keys, you may need to follow this tutorial. Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend grabbing the command line tools and all that; the Firefox extension is easier.
  4. You may also need/want the S3 File Interface extension: it gives you FTP-esque access to S3!
