Hi - I've got a web app which has pretty intensive processor requirements, specifically in relation to the amount of data that gets stored. Because of the massive amounts of data coming in and out (and being sorted, formatted, etc), I'm routinely bringing the server down. The problem is usually CPU related, not memory related, and it...
Creating a file (key) into Amazon S3 using Python (and boto) is not a problem.

This may be a silly question, but seeing as transfers between EC2 and S3 are free as long as within the same region, why isn't it possible to stream all transfers to and from S3 through EC2 and make the transfers completely free? Specifically, I'm looking at Heroku, which is a Ruby on Rails hosting service run on EC2, where bandwidth is...
Seeing that Amazon has priced the usage of EBS as: $0.10 per GB-month of provisioned storage; $0.10 per 1 million I/O requests Even though the value is in millions, I/O request add up pretty quickly ... I was wondering if there are any best practices for reducing I/O requests out there. E.g. Use an instance with more than enoug...
