Couple of questions :
a) For the DB sharing by pointing to the master node, I guess, if the master dies then all nodes will also wont be able to access the DB. Isn’t that true OR am i missing something?

b) Can you please point to bit more detailed instructions on setting up NFS?

How do we handle the syncing of databases’s and files between instances for a typical wordpress like blog?

Thanks,
Krishna

When using AutoScaling, do we need to explicitly configure any ELB (or does it get setup automatically)?

Regards,
Krishna

What other alternative can you recommend instead of NFS (to be used in the WordPress scenario with multiple instances) ?

Thanks!

Depends on traffic, how many instances you set as your min and max, how you pay for them (reserved vs on demand) etc.

You’re going to have to get your spreadsheet on.

How much it will cost per month for this setup?

Thanks

So using Pica, you can upload images via Admin to S3/Cloudfront.
