We’ve moved! geofas.com now runs on Amazon EC2.

I’m excited to report that a week’s worth (well about 25 hours in total) of research on work has come to fruition.

After having learned what I need to know about Amazon’s cloud computing web services EC2 & S3 I moved geofas.com over to the new architecture and it paid off. The site runs about twice as fast now which makes me very happy.

If you care to compare bring up http://blt.me.uk/ which on the previous web-host alongside http://geofas.com/ which is now running on Amazon EC2.

Later this year I’m going to post a how2 for setting up a wordpress powered blog on Amazon EC2 and move content over, a particular scenario that I believe has not been properly covered clearly in the blogosphere, so hopefully this may be of help to fellow bloggers.

Update: For cost reasons I’ve decided to go back to my original webhost since I had already paid there for 2 years of hosting.
