Still a shared resource. I don't see the benefit.
Even beyond the shared resource bit, with the kind of IO you are likely
to be pushing, you will want a decent NAS with lots of spindles and
fibre channel to your hosts.

Amazon instances are shared resources. I wouldn't want to count on
timing or disk throughput, and you can't just ask them to do "ssd" -
its a virtual machine! 500 simultaneous recordings is a hefty load,
and I would want to know that the underlying hardware is dedicated to
the task.
Sure you see lots of posts about hosting asterisk and/or freeswitch
on EC2. I have done it myself and even have some clients doing it
now *for proof of concept*. I've never heard of anyone using it for
the kind of load you are talking about. I'm assuming with such a
giant load you are making a decent profit. Buy some hefty hardware
and do the architecture properly. You can rent half a rack at lots
of high end datacenters for less than $1000/month.

Hi Jeff
Are you aware of any challenges of hosting it on AWS? It will help
me to work out alternate plan. Is there any recommendation? Should I
split it to multiple instances and balance traffic across multiple
small server instances? I can use Kamailio to balance traffic.
I see many posts referring to AWS deployment. Please help me to
choose AWS server instance.
*Thanks & Regards,*

Why use Amazon? With that kind of load I would want dedicated
servers. Call Rackspace or Softlayer.

Hi
I plan to host Asterisk instances on AWS/EC2 servers.
Requirement is to run asterisk instance with transcoding (g.729 +
g.711) and full recording. Number of concurrent calls expected are
500+. 2 instances will be configured for 100% redundancy. Heart
beat will be used to determine active instance.
How should I choose EC2 instance?
How many vCPU, RAM should be selected? I am assuming that server
with ssd is required as all 500+ calls needs to be recorded.

Amit Patkar
