Hi everyone,
Has anyone heard of, or had any success in, running ColdFusion in the
cloud? I've seen some old blog posts around 2008/2009 about CF9 being
setup in a cloud environment on Amazon EC2 but haven't had much luck
beyond that.
Any advice/info would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Hi Sean,
Thanks for that. I was mainly looking for confirmation that it could be
done as I couldn't seem to find much info on it (although I may not have
been looking in the right places). Do you know of a link that could
give me some info on the process of how it is set up?
Cheers,
Brad

Oh ok, great, I didn't think it would be that simple for a virtual
server :-)
Thanks for the advice.

They're exactly like regular servers. The only thing you have to watch
out for is if the disk image is reset on a hard restart (e.g., regular
Amazon EC2) so you need to use EBS or take a snapshot of your base
configured image and save it to S3 as an AMI - assuming you're using
Amazon. Rackspace is
Amazon is pretty cheap to get up and running and have a play - so I'd say
get in there and get your hands dirty :)
Pick a Amazon AMI, which is a virtual image (Amazon has it's own Linux
flavour too) of the whole OS already installed, and you can log in and do
whatever needs doing very easily.
Great, thanks for that, Sean. That's very handy advice.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for that. The AMI option sounds like a good plan. As for
physical vs cloud, I was wondering that same thing myself. I'll have a
play around and see how it goes.

That's not true. Standard applications can run in the cloud just fine.
The database just needs to be on persistence storage (such as
That's not entirely true - the files you put on your AMI snapshot stay there
(for non-EBS), and EBS instances retain their files from restart to restart.
But if you're on Amazon - there are services readily available to manage
things like CDNs and MySQL etc.
There is some extra complexity in

With EC2 you are also pretty much completely on your own support wise.
It's liking having your own dedicated servers in a colo so, yes, in
that respect you'll get no CF-specific support. Amazon is for people
