  • AWS Devops tools vs Bitbucket

    I have used CodePipeline/CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and CodeCommit quite a bit. You can see an example of it all working together with Terraform here: https://github.com/cogini/multi-env-deploy

    Parameter Store is a good place to store things. ECS can read from it and set variables. This is a complete example of using Terraform to manage infrastructure with EC2 or ECS: https://github.com/cogini/multi-env-deploy Here is an app that runs in ECS: https://github.com/cogini/phoenix_container_example This task file sets env vars based on parameter store: https://github.com/cogini/phoenix_container_example/blob/master/ecs/taskdef.json
  • Ask HN: Who operates at scale without containers?

    AWS has a fine stack for deploying "cloud native" apps on top of EC2 instances.

    Build a base AMI using Packer and launch it to an Auto Scaling Group behind a load balancer. Deploy code to the ASG using CodeDeploy. Use RDS for the database.

    This is a good match for languages that have good concurrency like Elixir. They benefit from deploying to big machines that have a lot of CPU cores, and keeping a common in-memory cache on the EC2 instance is more efficient than using an external cache like Elasticache. It also works well for resource-hungry systems with poor concurrency like Ruby on Rails. Putting these kinds of apps into big containers is just a waste of money.

    Here is a complete example of that architecture using Terraform: https://github.com/cogini/multi-env-deploy

    Similarly, bare metal can be really cost-effective. For $115/month, I can get a dedicated server with 24 VCPU cores (2x Intel Hexa-Core Xeon E5-2620 CPU), 64 GB RAM, 4x8 TB SATA, 30 TB traffic (see https://www.leaseweb.com/dedicated-servers#NL). That would be an order of magnitude more expensive on AWS with containers.
