AWS

Any AWS experts in the hizzie?

I have a question about my EC2 instance.

It may be more of an SSH question - but it relates to EC2.

No But Lay It One Me Anyway Cuz ...... I Stayed At A Holiday Inn Express Last Night

I created an EC2 instance, then I put a NodeJS Express server on it. I run the server from my command line using SSH.

Naturally when I close my command line console, the server terminates. Also if I leave it alone for too long, it times out and closes itself (Or at least SSH dumps back to the command line) and terminates the server.


Is there anyway I can fire off the server and just have it run. Even after I close my console

I can't believe there aren't more AWS people in here though.

Sorry Tox. But I'm much better at boiling eggs.

Boiling is easy. Peeling those bastards are the real bitch.

Move them from the boiling water directly into ice water. The shell contracts more slowly than the interior and therefore the interior pulls away from the shell in the fast cooling process which gives you a much cleaner and nicer peel.
