What is it about AWS that meets their needs better? I ask because you can provision a one-box wonder in AWS just like you do on a physical space with a single server. You just have to use remote-desktop to get into it, and then it's all the same. But if they want to use RDS, auto-scaling, and other Amazon-provided services then things can get confusing. So the answer to your question really depends upon what the client thinks they'll be getting by you taking your existing product "to the cloud". > I understand just enough AWS to be dangerous, which is not > much....

You can get yourself a server with a disk and everything, just like you are used to doing. > I've watched an AWS intro video and a couple of youtube videos on > setting up TC in AWS.

As usual, start with your requirements :) - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - https://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAl0yDpIACgkQHPApP6U8 pFj5GA/+Pr+CXtOGTYsZqCWVT7KYqvAulyyyZsHOvS2oaiapjrsWORYA5rzS478y TE+rMAUc7ep0RToW1ZCAhtyKi+M1vfIwGu6qkFA6NCBWKL92I8jaFw+j/pDJ0mSJ sfv0OGu8hAmQwy2FCpscgFR9PBKNzJN3o5OhR0cp1g0i6/J5Ci9xkn92KVAv1ZIU WjY+WrE9tcqtASHjO/wS53YreHlXoPLSzhpbjwje/HzKkBYXRV9dRIpHLnOSNc6t +5LhnLghVR27J3n/w1xFeO8kM3SBySuCHhUGTNCKdxMlrprxCIwZjvgLwHBxwv17 tK6NOxmuk4xsi7vrKGhR/PWYHuTMNrYkWwD3Hv2vskwqo4RioIOaseoXBGHYy/WN iDwN6viSzSCqivP+MLBGi00Xo3LFdJZu+DMufX05SYJvRxxO6yaNMxING7zr9ubJ ossrDNIkHSDs4J0SAvzYidfPCOUbRWvHI6dYLkqsieRk7pWp2JPSWBWKuisllBnP VOv4IaVfZNHGE5TmkWElKE8Cbyj8xxSerFN15RjoawmwnnP9c1L8LirTi/l7GEQN HlQfNFP+evIbGpPOrcUpZJa5sjfePeUl+jJj08DPw0djyG3K3tAcBQTO4LjqsKTC g1phEO502BxE8v1UPTpEYXGfxhvMSirvjC37lXbTabNo3R4Tbt4= =SUFA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
