A quick note on how I'm currently handling Blue/Green or A/B deployments with Terraform and AWS EC2 Auto Scaling.

In my particular use case, I want to be able to inspect an AMI deployment manually before disabling the previous deployment.

Hopefully someone finds this useful, and if you have and feedback please leave a comment or email me.

Overview

I build my AMI's using Packer and Ansible.

Run NodeJS as a Service on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

With Node you can write very fast JavaScript programs serverside. It's pretty easy to install Node, code your program, and run it. But > how do you make it run nicely in the background like a true server?

• Go to /etc/init/
• $ sudo vim yourapp.conf
• Paste script.conf
• $ sudo start yourapp
• And when you wanna kill the process $ sudo stop yourapp
