We're paying around $1100/month and looking to migrate off EngineYard as well - can you point me in the right direction and/or provide any tips for a migration

  Tips: * Automate Server Configuration with Puppet * Store your database on an EBS * Backup often to S3 * Use cloudfront to host your most common static files (CSS, JPG, JS) * If you don't have too much email volume, use google apps for your domain. * Use DNSMadeEasy.com for your DNS and also failover to your backup. * Anything that you didn't automated, document it so that its easier to automate later. * Have a backup plan if EC2 goes down. If you want some help with this, you could always email me dan {at} abtain {dot} com.
