Grails plugin for deploying to Amazon EC2
Cloud Tools now includes a plugin for deploying Grails applications to Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2). Like the Cloud tools Maven plugin, this plugin makes deploying a web application to EC2 extremely easy. It currently provides the following Grails scripts:
- cloud-tools-deploy - Launches EC2 instances (MySQL master and slaves, tomcats and Apache) and deploys the web application
- cloud-tools-describe - Displays information about the instances
- cloud-tools-redeploy - Redeploys the web application
- cloud-tools-stop - Terminates the EC2 instances
I plan to release it in the next few days but in the meantime please contact me if you would like to try it out.
Awesome Chris! Let me know if you want to release it into the Grails
central repo at plugins.grails.org
Fantastic! I am totally going to use this!
Awesome!
Users of this plugin can also combine its use with the Grails S3 plugin!
