8. What is Amazon ?
• Boot server instances, scale up/down, pay-per-use
• EC2: Compute capacity in the cloud
• S3: Storage capacity in the cloud (1b → 5 GB)
• RRS (reduced redundancy), RDS (database), FWS
(fulfillment), SQS (queue), SNS (notification),
CloudWatch (monitoring), FPS (payment), VPC
(private cloud), EBS (block storage), ...

9. Java EE 6 on Amazon
• 2 New AMIs based on Hardened OpenSolaris
• Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0 (not released)
• Apache HTTP Server + mod_jk (not released)
• Pre-existing MySQL Database 5.1 AMI
• Instances managed by SMF
• GlassFish: svcadm restart/enable/disable
svc:/application/GlassFish/domain1:default
• MySQL SMF: svcadm enable mysql
• mod_jk: svcadm restart/refresh/enable/disable
svc:/network/http:apache22

10. Java EE 6 on Amazon
# Define a load-balancing worker
AJP_INSTANCE_NAME
worker.list=worker1 in GlassFish instances
#
# Define an ajp13 worker to represent instance1
worker.instance1.type=ajp13
worker.instance1.host=ec2-67-202-51-223.compute-1.amazonaws.com
worker.instance1.port=8009
#
# Define an ajp13 worker to represent instance2
worker.instance2.type=ajp13
worker.instance2.host=ec2-67-202-7-236.compute-1.amazonaws.com
worker.instance2.port=8009
#
# Define the type of worker1
worker.worker1.type=lb
# Add inst1 and inst2 to the balance_workers property of worker1
worker.worker1.balance_workers=instance1,instance2
