Maturity of e-commerce modules in DJango when compared with Catalyst

Good afternoon, After trialling ~20 CMSs, I have decided that none are extensible enough for my project, and that a web-framework is best. Of the various web-frameworks, Catalyst and DJango seem to be the most powerful, and also have the most pre-built extensions. My question to both

Re: Which Linux distro to use on EC2?

I don't have a recommendation on a specific distribution -- that's really a matter of personal taste and experience. However, try to go with a free-tier instance until you really need to upgrade. There are only certain images that can be used with that free-tier. It's a pretty good deal! I've used

Re: Which Linux distro to use on EC2?

No, Gentoo is not a variant of Debian. I also don't think there are variants that are for "hardcore" users more than others. If you're "hardcore", then you should be able to do things like write your own kernel modules and perform low-level disk operations no matter the distro. I personally love

I would suggest that you use whatever your sysadmin (or if no sysadmin, developer (or if it's just you, you)) are most familiar with. I assume the packages that you are using (at least the ones you've listed) will be in the package management systems for any of the distros that you have

Re: Which Linux distro to use on EC2?

The main difference with Ubuntu is that it's a binary distribution (pre-compiled binaries for a standardized platform). I use Gentoo, personally, which is a variant of Debian with "portage" rather than "apt". LAMP server stuff is readily available on all distros of Linux. If you're hardcore
