Comment on Dropbox should have used a Jumpboxparent

Comments

the other advantages not listed here: -the JumpBox is portable across virtualization systems -the JumpBox can be brought up on EC2 if need be -you can use the backup/restore feature to create an archive of the delta of what changes you've made to the LAMP stack and just keep that. if you need a new copy, get a blank jumpbox and inject the backup into it and you're back where you were -we have a Rails stack as well as a LAMP stack which is even more of a time saver-> http://www.jumpbox.com/app/rubyonrails -the backup system integrates with your S3 acct so you have an offsite emergency copy while you're on the road
