simple cloudfront Blueprint server template

[Eric]

Hi guys,

I just wrote a simple cloudfront template to launch a new blueprint server using S3 as the storage.  The template can be found at https://github.com/ericchaves/cloud-formation-templates.git

Any ideas, improvements or comments are welcome.

Cheers,

Eric

Hi Richard,

I'm glad you liked it. It's my first cloudfront template, so it has a lot of room for improvement. For now the user has to previously choose the desired AMI  (I'm not using any mappings as most template does) and it has to be a Debian based or at list be an AMI with apt installed.  But the one thing the template does is to create a self-signed certificate so the Blueprint server runs on top of SSL.

The idea Behind the template was to provide an way for AWS users to try Buleprint server from just a few clicks, without having to worry about setup details.

I would really appreciate your insights since you have a lot of experience running Blueprint servers (obviously) as much as creating cloudfront templates (I'm assuming).

Cheers,

Eric
