Blog moved to Amazon EC2
I decided to move my blog, and some other services I run, to Amazon EC2. I have had nothing but excellent service from the current hosting company, Rimu Hosting where I have a VPS, however I want to see how reliable EC2 really is in practice.
I don’t yet have access to persistent storage on EC2, so I cobbled together a quick paranoid hourly data dump of critical files to my S3 account. Investigated a few different S3 backup options, settled on a quick and dirty.
