Looking for AWS Architect/Consultant

[Paper_Chase]

Building out a high volume application that is running some php files and pulling some information from a MySQL database. Looking at 10-15 reads per second.

I have a feeling this will melt my traditional dedicated server. Looking to have this thing running on a scalable AWS configuration from the get go. Does anyone know a knowledgeable and reliable AWS Architect that can recommend a good set-up as well as get it going?

Thank You!

10-15 reads per second should certainly not melt your dedi.

Really? Ok....hmmm....

I figure this is a good chance to work with the AWS platform anyhow, so might as well try doing a configuration with them.

Might be able to help if you like, depends on your time frame.
Wouldn't be me, but my crew has experience on AWS.
PM me if your fancy...or something like that.

AWS is expensive for the performance you get. It makes sense if you need to scale a lot, but if you have consistent load, dedis are often a better bet.

10 - 15 reads? PHP? you better be kidding me. Custom C++ running on large cluster what you need for this. Gonna be expensive too.

I dunno brah, can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not. Just figuring this chit out as I go...

You need 2 things: A dedi or decent VPS, and a non-retarded programmer.

For 10-15 reads a second a dedicated server should be able to handle this without breaking a sweat.

LOL.

Just checked my dedi:

ø per second: 310

This MySQL server has been running for 108 days

Still have capacity left :smokin:

Obviously the range will vary with query but 10-15 is no biggy.
