Anyone using Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) for Actinic

[alexwren]

Just a quick question,

has anyone any experience of using Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Actinic. By this I mean combining their Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) service with S3.

Keen to experiment but if it has already been done I would love to hear about it. It should be gold plated but....

With you on this one gotta be the way to go.
Any downside anyone? Are you using it Alex?

All I can see is benifits:
Using cloud for faster delivery.
More reliable.

And I guess if it worked well I won't need an expensive server to run, could almost have a basic package hosting package for html, actinic specific files and possibly product images (for ease). Then serve heavy javascript, images for design css etc from the cloud.

Any thoughts?

Nope, never got round to it.
