- wmf 16y agoIt's not me in particular, but if you read the EC2 forum going back to 2006 people have been asking for full virtualization, multiple IPs, multicast, non-NAT, reverse ARP, shared EBS, etc.
- agmiklas 16y agoNot the original poster, but here's some stuff I really wish AWS had: a) Ability to map an elastic IP to an ELB. The CNAME thing it uses now has way too many drawbacks [1]. b) Ability to make an RDS instance a slave to or a master for a normal MySQL instance. This would make it possible to use RDS as a backup to our ordinary DB infrastructure using normal MySQL replication (and eventually, vice versa) c) Retention periods for EBS snapshots. You can get this yourself by writing a few simple scripts, but it would be really nice if snapshots could simply be labelled "delete after 90 days". d) A cross-availability zone, synchronously replicated EBS volume. This is probably fairly specific to our use case, but it would be neat if AWS natively provided something like DRBD.

- bmurphy 16y agoDisk I/O performance that doesn't suck. Let us add dev pay instances to an ELB. More ram. Elastic private ip addresses. Change security groups of running instances. I have a lot more, but those are my big ones.
- jollojou 16y agoWhile it is true that you cannot add new ones or remove existing ones, you can modify an existing security group of a running instance: http://aws.amazon.com/articles/1145?_encoding=UTF8&jiveRedirect=1#13 http://aws.amazon.com/articles/1145?_encoding=UTF8&jiveR....
