I use an instance store with the MySql data on a volume which gets mounted by Chef. Works well.

There is a script around to do persistent snapshots with MySql. I'd recommend finding that.

Cheers,

Hi Chefs!

I'm developing infrastructure on EC2 using Chef and its standard application and database cookbook.

For the mysql database storage, I want some feedback on choosing what to setup.

If I fire up the instance with the EBS-backed store, then the db master will be an instance, or if I fire the instance-store VM, then I've to attach/mount a Volume to store the database data.

So, my question is which way to go? Can you share your experience if you have faced such situation?
