Surviving AWS Failures with a Node.js and MongoDB Stack

Sweet post. I think despite the massive AWS outage last year, a lot of setups still aren't as fault resistant as you'd want. Last year's AWS outage died cuz of a cascade failure on EBS. Have they resolved that issue or should your EC2 volumes not be on EBS on this setup?

Amazon is great, but we had a huge outage last year. This helpful to those who are worried. Keep a watch out for these guys at Kinvey. Corn dogs.

Useful stuff, the outages had a detrimental affect on a lot of people.
