Tutorial Purpose• Help adoption of @NetflixOSS components • Answer questions along the way • Less trail blazing for us

#netflixoss

Assumptions• Stay Local (using us-west-2) • Non-destructive operations • Follow instructions closely • Security through obscurity • Not a “developing for the cloud” tutorial • This will cost money

Inventing the Application• Problem

- Application is not an Amazon concept • Solution

- Create an Application domain in SimpleDB - Enforce naming conventions on Amazon objects

Inventing the Cluster• Problem

- Two ASGs on purpose - Different names • Solution

- Maintain same prefix - Append version - Derive Cluster from ASG names

#netflixoss

Asgard vs Console• Asgard

- Provide Application and Cluster - Simplifies object construction - Introduce workflow - Tightly couple with internal systems • Console

- Access to all objects
