What's the best way to set up and control Amazon EC2 instances on Mac OS X?
- senthil_rajasek 18y agoyou mean "from" a Mac OS X client machine right ? use the terminal/shell + ec2 command line tools ;-)
- donna 18y agoyes :)... What about the EC2 Firefox extension?
- bayareaguy 18y agoWhat's best depends on you. If you can code a few python scripts, use boto http://code.google.com/p/boto http://code.google.com/p/boto If that looks too scary but you can handle ruby then consider Capazon and Capistrano - http://capazon.rubyforge.org http://capazon.rubyforge.org and http://capify.org/ http://capify.org/ If none of this command line / script stuff is your thing then you may want to look at some web admin tools like Virtualmin (http://www.virtualmin.com http://www.virtualmin.com) that support EC2.
- donna 18y agothanks for the options
