    Threw me off at first as well. I was thinking of tasks per month. But this seems to be just pay as you go top-ups. Makes sense from a freelancer perspective. If I have work, I top-…

    We got rid of all IAM users used by applications and moved to role-based access. Nowhere in the application do you need to enter AWS credentials. AWS SDK will attempt to discover s…

    We run very similar scaffolding to host different workloads, except we run it on ECS, so you could complicate reference diagram even further. In reality, when we had to add Wordpre…

    AWS has Aurora Serverless ( https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora/serverless/ ) for that purpose with MySQL and Postgres compatible engines. But I haven't heard anyone using it for sid…

    To add to the question, what happens with CloudFormation setup, where template doesn't specify EBS volume type. Will new instances use gp2 as default?
