AideRSS Blog: Announcing Thrudb EC2 Public AMIs

  • Jake Luciani · 2 years ago
    Thanks guys!

    I'm so glad you have been exploring Thrudb. You have helped bring the project to another level and I think with these public ami's will help other people get started much faster.

    Well, to be honest, I think ThruDB can give Amazon's SimpleDB a run for it's money. (It does help that ThruDB is free, of course!) The new DISK+S3 back end engine is one sweet feature..

    The combination of Thrift, Thrudb, memcached, Spread and Lucene, makes a web-oriented developer's mouth water!

    It's awesome that you're making the images publicly available.

    Posted a review of ThruDB yesterday, for those interested in learning more about the project: Thrudb - faster, cheaper than SimpleDB.

    Go Jake go!

    Thanks for the work!

    What are the steps u did to get the AMI working?
    could you post some tutorial on how you configured the AMI???

    I use Gentoo AMIs and I would like to try this out.
    cause only stick to gentoo. :)

    Thanks

    Wow amazing. I'll certainly be using it. Stupendous work Jake, Nice work igvita.com on the write up and AMI images.

    Hi, I installed the AIM, how do I work out - or what is - the root user and password? Sorry, first time with EC2, got it working with RightScale
  • Jeff · 2 years ago
    Phil,

    The root user is disabled. When you start the instance using the image, you need to specify your keyfile and then use your credentials.

    Would it be possible to post your procedure for building the Centos Thrudb images?

    The AMI's are great! But we will likely be doing some implementations that do not use the Amazon Web Services.

    It would be great to eventually see Thrudb integrated with a package manager like Yum to automate everything but until then...

    Thanks,
