comment Load balance https and websockets wth sticky sessions and NGINX
Yeah it does. But is there an easy way for NGINX to do this?

comment Load balance https and websockets wth sticky sessions and NGINX
The only viable alternative I really see is to rewrite my back-end app to no longer need session stickiness. With sticky sessions, as you mentioned stickiness based on SSL-id has its drawbacks, and using cookies means I'm transmitting unencrypted traffic through Amazon's network (which is not attractive from a security standpoint).

Cool, thanks. So I'm guessing that in my nginx config instead of an http {} block with SSL enabled, I just simply use a tcp {} block that proxies based on ip-hash, and let my backend app do the ssl termination?

Can you be a bit more specific? Will the ip-hash directive work for the client IP? Or is it only for HTTP headers?

thanks! so the client IP is available without having to decrypt the request? I can simply use the ip-hash NGINX directive for this?

comment What would be the best method to provide my server environment as a software package to be installed on a different server?
Also what is the name of the VMWare product best for this? (Am I allowed to ask this in a comment?)

Thanks! Could you explain the "rack-in-a-box" solution a bit more? I'm a bit confused as to what you mean.

comment Creating a snapshot of an attached EBS volume is not working
@EricHammond That's what I did. I think there may be a problem with AWS.

@EricHammond Can you only create snapshots of root devices?

BTW, it's only creating snapshots for the root device and not for any other volumes...
