您是否使用亚马逊的云服务，为你的公司？ [英] Do you use Amazons Cloud services for your company?

问题描述

我读了很多关于亚马逊云计算的可能性，像 S3 或 EC2 并我想知道是否有人实际使用这关键任务的应用程序。你主持你的公司网站在云？您存储文件吗？你在云中运行你的构建服务器？

I read a lot about the possibilities of Amazons Cloud computing, like S3 or EC2 and I wondered if someone actually uses this for mission-critical applications. Do you host your company website in the cloud? Do you store files there? Do you run your build servers in the cloud?

有已经有一些服务，如 Scalr 或的 WeoCeo ，可以帮助你完成这个任务，但我不知道是否管理已经在的地步，这是一个真正的问题...

There are already some services like Scalr or WeoCeo that could help you with this task, but I don't know if management is already at the point where this is a real issue...

修改我想再添点：你觉得，还有的隐藏的在AWS许可，将让你（和/或您的公司）的问题从外包应用程序，甚至部分到云？

edit I'd like to add another point: Do you think, there are hidden issues in the AWS licenses that would keep you (and/or your company) from outsourcing applications or even parts of applications into the cloud?

修改你知道比较S3或EC2和你自己或第三方托管服务？整体中断时间的一些统计数据

edit Do you know about some statistics comparing the overall outage times of S3 or EC2 and your own or 3rd party hosting services?

推荐答案

我安装我的EC2应用程序的两个实例，并一直使用S3作为一个地方到AWS备份和媒体资产交割已。我们在六月中旬约15％的应用程序的内容/流量转移到了EC2。其结果是混合的，而我们正在内容大量使用实例回到我们的托管数据中心，现在正在调查其他内容递送选项。

I setup two instances of my application on EC2, and have been using S3 in as a local-to-AWS backup and media asset delivery. We moved over about 15% of our applications content/traffic to EC2 in mid-June. The result is mixed, and we are moving the content heavy usage instance back to our hosted data center, and now are investigating other content delivery options.

请注意：

1. 在我的应用程序是消耗带宽（从每个实例的100Mbps）
2. 在我的公司，我是总部设在瑞士，而且肯定对我们的评价产生影响。
3. 在我定义带宽流量的速率（Mbps的等）和交通量为（MB，GB等）

为低到中等量，假设少于每月可能是TB级
• 在流量费用。超过这个模糊的线，无论是自己做还是找一个合适的CDN
• 在活跃的用户社区
• 在有效无限的带宽与S3 / CloudFront的交付内容
• 在灵活性（揭开序幕一个实例，并让它在几分钟内运行）
• CPU电源的一个实例可用，即使是小实例类型，总是够我的应用程序。还有对于那些谁需要它的其他高CPU实例类型。

Pros:

• Traffic costs for low to medium volumes, assuming less than maybe a terabyte per month. Exceed that fuzzy line and either do it yourself or find a proper CDN
• Active user community
• Effectively unlimited bandwidth with S3/CloudFront-delivered content
• Flexibility (kick off an instance and have it running in minutes)
• CPU power available in an instance, even the small instance type, was always enough for my application. There are other high-CPU instance types for those who need it.
• 我们已经实例变得不可（一个没有先例的发生），并有执行我们的灾难恢复过程。 12小时。
• 在网络延迟，为S3和EC2，可以是不可接受的高（毫秒100S）
• 在EC2实例带宽是有限的。尽管搜索时间，我从来没有发现有确凿的数据之一，请问用户可以期待一个正式声明。起初，我们看到了一个最大的〜250mpbs的测试，但似乎已显着改善。
• 在每HTTP连接带宽可以低得无法接受。 1-2mbps甚至从我们的瑞士数据与800mpbs连接和质量对等中心。编辑：最近，我们看到我们的数据中心和EC2的3-4mpbs范围内的利率
• 在S3是不是一个'正常'的文件系统<打击>，和专用软件是必需的。我们选择JungleDisk，我现在觉得不适合24/7，中等大小的数据集的服务器环境。奇怪的事情会发生（两次列出文件与LS命令）和意外事故。 使用 EBS 的持久性数据，尽管这是的不是没有警告的。
• <打击> S3是的没有的一个CDN。我公司和许多人一样，都试图使用Amazon S3作为一个CDN。还有其他低成本的替代品在那里。 （Akamai的，voxel.net，easycache.com）
• We had an instance become unreachable (a not unheard of occurrence) and had execute our disaster recovery procedure. 12h.
• Network latency, for both S3 and EC2, can be unacceptably high (100s of ms)
• EC2 instance bandwidth is limited. Despite hours of search, I never found an official statement with hard numbers one what users can expect. Initially we saw a max of ~250mpbs in tests but that seems to have improved dramatically.
• Per HTTP connection bandwidth can be unacceptably low. 1-2mbps from even our Swiss data center with a 800mpbs connection and quality peering. We have recently seen rates between our data center and EC2 in the 3-4mpbs range.
• S3 is not a 'normal' file system, and special software is required. We chose JungleDisk, which I now find inappropriate for a 24/7, moderately sized data set server environment. Strange things would happen (file listed twice with an 'ls' command) and unexpected crashes. Use EBS for persistent data, although that is not without caveats.
• S3 is not a CDN. My company, like many others, have tried to use Amazon S3 as a CDN. There are other low cost alternatives out there. (Akamai, voxel.net, easycache.com)

我是云计算概念的粉丝，我们将继续运行一个实例了EC2的，但我们发现它不适合我们目前的形式主要生产需求。 AWS有一些问题需要理清。

I'm a fan of the cloud concept, and we will continue to run an instance out of EC2, but we found it inappropriate for our main production needs in its current form. AWS has some issues to sort out.
