Made this a while back because I was sick of the way Amazon's instance info (http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/ http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/) and pricing info (http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/ http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/) were on different pages in a hard-to-browse format.
Hoping this helps people compare and choose new instances following yesterday's troubles.
- timdorr 16y agoSimple, but highly functional. That's the right way to do it. Any chance we could get some other regions in there too?
- powdahound 15y agoYou bet - I'm hoping to add more regions and data once I have some free time. Still putting out some EC2 fires from yesterday.
- pauldino 16y agoIf you want ec2instances.info without the www to work you might consider using WWWizer (http://www.wwwizer.com/ http://www.wwwizer.com/) Basically you can point any domain's A record to 174.129.25.170 and it will redirect you to the www subdomain.
- powdahound 15y agoThat's a great idea. Just hooked it up.
- aw3c2 15y agoOr you use a .htacess and do not give a random person control over your domain. Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on rewritecond %{http_host} ^ec2instances.info [nc] rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.ec2instances.info/$1 [r=301,nc]
- powdahound 15y agoThe site is hosted on S3 so that type of configuration isn't an option. More details: http://powdahound.com/2011/03/hosting-a-static-site-on-amazon-s3-ec2instances-info http://powdahound.com/2011/03/hosting-a-static-site-on-amazo...

- izendejas 15y agoThis is very helpful, thanks. I also hate Amazon's tables. You should put up a donation link.
