Erlang, CouchDB, Yaws and MochiWeb Amazon Machine Instance

14 Jun

I call this my erlang playground instance. Here’s what’s installed:

Ubuntu Server Hardy 8.0.4
Apache 2 listening to port 80
Erlang R12B-3
CouchDB 0.8 listening to port 5984
Yaws v1.76 listening to port 8080
MochiWeb Library

The instance ID is ami-12ae4a7b and I’ve made it public so feel free to use it to your hearts content!

I plan to add to this instance whenever I find time. I definitely want to get SSL socket communication going using this tutorial. I’m also interested in Kevin’s virtuerl project over a hypotheticalabs for quick and easy VM management because the whole reason I’m going through the trouble of doing this on EC2 is I think development on any erlang system should start and end with multiple physical machines.

The Brave New World of Server-Side Javascript

Every once in a while I hear whispers of server-side javascript and I get just as excited as the next person. But, I’ll admit that until recently a phrase like “Javascript on Rails” was on the same level as a phrase like “McGyver vs. The A Team – The Movie.” Fictonal. But awesome in theory.
