Hi Arie,

In my setup I don't have any slaves. Unfortunately, our application is
incredibly write heavy and slaves don't help me all that much. As
such, I am forced to shard when I need to scale.

As far as backups go I have my own ebs_backup.php script I wrote that
handles snapshotting the various volumes and does the correct flushing
and freezing on the db servers. I'll post my script that I use soon.
It also deletes snapshots older than a specific number of days for me.

Mike
