Re: [rt-pmc] Equinox on AWS

Hi Ian,

I would be interested in volunteering to work with the Amazon folks particularly around #1 on your list. Coincidently, I've been doing a number of blog posts around the issue of building and managing Equinox-based appservers [1]...and it seems that some of that (and underlying work) may be of use.

So I volunteer to push this forward. Please LMK what is desired/arranged.

Scott

One of the action items I took from a recent PMC meeting was to speak with Amazon about hosting Equinox and other EclipseRT technologies on EC2. I have had the initial conversation and Amazon seems to be interested in working with us. Right now we identified two main areas:

   1. Making it easy for developers to build, test and deploy Equinox
      based applications to an Equinox images hosted on EC2. The main
      use case would be developers that are prototyping Equinox based
      applications but don’t want to install and maintain the server
      component. Amazon has technical evangelist that could help us
      setup the appropriate images. We might also be able to work with
      the team at Amazon that has created Eclipse plugins for EC2.
   2. The other area was scalability testing. Amazon is working with
      some load testing tools but is open to others. Are there
      specific types of load testing tools that people use for testing
      RAP or Equinox?

The next step is for 1-2 technical people from the EclispeRT team to have a phone call with the Amazon technical people. Is there anyone that wants to volunteer to help push this forward?

Thanks

Ian
