for plain hosting i am not convinced that S3 is the best solution. have a look at slicehost, they are really quite good and stable. it might as well be worth looking at the rackspace cloud offerings - simply compare prices and pick the best one or even go with a dedicated server (well worth for 100 sites i guess). http://newservers.com/ offer q quite nice deal for dedicated servers and provide APIs for automated provisioning. as for multi hosting on EC2, you get a machine image, an VM, run on it whatever you want and feel like. you can add IPs and move IPs via API calls and do lots of stuff so yes, you can run your entire hosting environment off EC2 - i would probably go for something else though. cheers lenz -- twitter: @norbu09 current project: iWantMyName.com painless domain registration (finally) -- NZ PHP Users Group: http://groups.google.com/group/nzphpug To post, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe, send email to [email protected]
