I have transitioned to the cloud
April 15th, 2011 Posted in service, software
I know I haven’t updated barelyadraft for a while, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t thought about it and have quite a bit of unfinished posts that may or may not ever make it on the site. At any rate, I grew tired of the site being extremely slow due to my hosting provider that, while being very nice, didn’t deliver a fast or reliable service to suit what I needed to feel the site performed up to snuff. So I have taken the plunge and transtioned barelyadraft and my private site (in danish), sorenostergaard.com, to the cloud – more specifically to Amazon’s AWS. Dead simple procedure to set up and the performance increase has been incredible, while at the same time saving me lots of money, despite moving from a very low cost provider – fatcow.com.
Each site now has it’s own server to run on with full control of the linux box – beautiful!
