" summary

Answers practical deployment questions: PaaS here uses a two-step deploy (configure with Chef then run deploy), offers production cluster defaults (two app servers + dedicated DB) and 500 free instance hours to test, supports autoscale and utility instances for background jobs, and lets customers add custom chef recipes or SSH in to tweak files. Amazon limits one certificate per instance so wildcard certs or manual ELB workarounds are used. Pricing guidance is consultative and prepaid support plans are available.
