Here are the slides from the talk that I gave at the
SD Forum Java SIG in March 2009. The
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
is ideally suited to running Java applications. It lets you develop
using standard Java software packages such as Tomcat and MySQL and
rapidly deploy applications on servers that are provisioned and managed
via a web services API. However, because it is a cloud, some aspects of
EC2 are very different than a traditional, physical computing
environment. In this session you will learn about those differences and
how they impact how you handle security, networking, storage and
availability. We describe how to use EC2 and the other Amazon web
services to develop and deploy Java applications. You will learn how to
use EC2 availability zones to deploy highly available applications. We
also discuss how to architect secure applications for Amazon EC2.
For easy deployment of Java and Grails applications on
Amazon EC2, checkout
Cloud Tools and Cloud Foundry.
Talk to us about
migrating your applications to Amazon EC2.
