Rails Conf 2013 Engine Yard Cloud by Edward Chiu & PJ Hagerty
summary
A live dashboard demo of Engine Yard Cloud shows repo-to-deploy in a few clicks, SSH access to instances, auto distribution across availability zones and an actual failover where a slave promotes and continues serving requests so the demo works. Stack tooling includes Chef, Nginx, Unicorn/Passenger choices, optional Mongo/Redis and boot-from-snapshot. Claims: thousands of applications deployed, three preconfigured options for instance layouts, and staffed 24/7 support with distinct trial, app support and professional services tiers.
