I have used it quite a bit, well at least been involved in it. I am on the Amazon Linux AMI Team that these guys worked closely with as it run on top of Amazon Linux AMI. One of the great features of this, is that is runs your own instances, so even after you launch with Beanstalk, you can log into the server that are running your application. You have have more control over the stack. It is some cool stuff. You can read Jeff Barr's posts about it here: http://aws.typepad.com/aws/aws-elastic-beanstalk/ Nathan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
