Comment Re:Availability zones (Score 2) 112

From: http://aws.amazon.com/es/ec2/
Availability Zones are distinct locations that are engineered to be insulated from failures in other Availability Zones and provide inexpensive, low latency network connectivity to other Availability Zones in the same Region. By launching instances in separate Availability Zones, you can protect your applications from failure of a single location.

Better than use different region, I think it is better have multiple cloud providers...

Comment Availability zones (Score 1) 112

What is more scaring for me, is that Amazon tell you that they have multiple availavility zones on each zone, and recomends you to distribute replicated servers, on each of this zones, for example I have a project with the master database in one zone, and the replica on the other zone. Why both zones fail?? Are not isolated/independent? Amazon charges you for data transfer between zones. As other says fails the servers, anyone must had backups on other place (S3, or Amazon external).

Comment Active directory could deploy for all the windows (Score 1) 286

If you have a Windows environment with a Active directory you could deploy with GPO (Group Policy) to all the desktops on the domain. http://www.tcpdump.com/kb/os/windows/certificate-deployment-using-gpo/all-pages.html If you have Linux desktops may be you colud deploy a package with the certificate. If you set up your own CA, then you must have to deploy the CA certificate once too.
