No. You learn to use it just like you would a normal linux box - or you use their managed container service which is basically plug and play with docker compose

- mentat 11y agoActually you don't or else you break the whole scaling / immutability model. I'm talking from production experience here. I ended up moving to OpsWorks and the level of abstraction worked better for me then.
- pjungwir 11y agoI'm curious what you thought of OpsWorks? I tried it a couple years ago, when it was really new, and it was pretty painful. I'd rather just run Chef myself on regular EC2 instances and Autoscaling Groups. I recall a lot of issues hooking into the OpsWorks lifecycle at the right place, broken Berkshelf support, failures with no good error messages, an even slower build-test-fix cycle than usual, discrepancies between the OpsWorks cookbooks on Github vs what was actually run, and difficulty testing things out in Vagrant first. Has any of that gotten better?
- mentat 11y agoThis was a while ago too but I used AWS support and the Loft extensively to try to bang out what actually worked. Most of my stuff was pretty simple and I was a one person ops team so it was "good enough". I would not try to make it work with a larger team but still better than that generation of EB.
