I'm in the process of transitioning from a VPS (WHM/CPanel) to EC2. I've found some great how to's on setting up a machine for the cloud[1] but I'm not sure the best setup to add some of the WHM/CPanel features.
Here are some of the features of cpanel I use: 1. Cpanel monitors the services (i.e. apache) and restarts them if they crash. I'm thinking about using supervisord for this. Does anyone have experience with this or is there other tools I should be looking at? 2. I'm running a custom DNS(BIND). I'm planning on switching to Amazon Route 53. 3. I'm switching to PostgreSQL and I'd like to have something similar to myPhpAdmin. 4. Creating a backup script seems pretty straight forward. 5. What is the best way to create a firewall to block certain IPs? I'll have an nginx server in front of apache. How have others implemented these features? Is there anything else I should be thinking about? I don't mind a command line interface.
