We are learning the hard way that the EC2 Availability Zone separation is not enough, and EC2 is lacking some key features offering multi region tools.
Thanks for the hints, I'm going to check them out.
I echo this... although I don't personally use Foreman. You can do scaling type stuff without the tool and I just use POP (plain old puppet). For me personally it took longer to get on the config-management bandwagon but once I did I have never looked back.
Learning to use Puppet, Chef, Salt or similar will only bring benefits!
