At my current stage of investigation on EC2, I”m still just trying to figure out how to handle persistent storage and create some kind of stable IP solution.

Anyhow, your feedback was helpful to me. Thanks!

Jim: We have mixed feelings. It’s pretty stable and considering our backup and replication solutions it’s very scalable. But it’s also got a bit of a higher latency than you’d usually find in dedicated solutions elsewhere. We’re (quite seriously) considering a move, although we love EC2. Often it’s a matter of milliseconds in response times, but they make a difference.

I was (somewhat snarkily) asking if the service speed had improved – I’ll check back in a few months because I really like your feature set but hate the speed at which it runs. I’m sticking to basecamp for the time being – it really is *much* faster than goplan.

Thanks for your comments, though, and good luck with the service improvements

My company is considering rolling out some new apps on EC2. I’d love to hear how you guys are finding it and whether you remain pleased.

Can you give me more details on what exactly you are experiencing? Feel free to send us an email to the support account with details from your registered account email address – because the one you’re commenting with doesn’t appear to be a Goplan user. I’m trying to figure out if and which machine in the cluster may be responding slow to your requests but from my tests (and we have a lot of people using the service as I write this) it’s all looking very good.
