Closed 2 years ago.

I'm starting to migrate a few applications to Amazon Web Services. My applications are Python/Django apps, running over MySQL.

I plan on using EC2 and EBS for starters.

I'm looking for a few things:

A good step-by-step tutorial explaining how to deploy Django on AWS. I've looked around, but most tutorials are from 2 years ago, so I'm worried they're outdated.
I'm trying to understand, with which AMI should I start? I know there's a BitNami AMI that comes preconfigured with Django goodiness, but I've seen a lot of other sources say you should start with a basic (clean) linux box and install everything yourself. Why?
Are there any other important things I should be thinking about? I have very little sysadmining experience (the apps are currently on WebFaction), so I'm not sure what I should be thinking about.

A few extra points:

I plan on running several applications on the same EC2 instance, I assume that's possible?
I'm using virtualenv to separate between the various apps right now, I assume I can continue doing the same on the EC2 instance?

Thanks!
