Ask HN: Best practices on autoscaled deployment on AWS?

2 pointsby gchuckyalmost 12 years ago
We&#x27;ve been starting to use AWS more, but we&#x27;re hitting a bit of a wall on how to handle code deployments, particularly in an autoscaling group that isn&#x27;t done with Elastic Beanstalk.<p>The main options I see are to either have a script that periodically runs git pull, or to rebuild our AMIs with every deployment and have that push out into the autoscale group. Neither seems particularly ideal. I think I read somewhere that it&#x27;s possible to do this with CloudFormation, but I don&#x27;t see how that could work.<p>For reference, we do development in PHP, nodejs, and Python, and it seems like each instance would require something a bit specialized. And all of our code is in git repos.<p>Anyway, any advice would be much appreciated. Articles, walkthroughs, that sort of thing. I&#x27;ll try to answer any questions that there might be. Thanks!
