Rails 3 Server on EC2

Question

I'm trying to setup a production server for a rails 3 app on a single amazon ec2 instance, and am wondering what route to take.

I'm quite new to deploying rails apps - is there a pre-existing ami I can use for rails3?

Any tips/wisdom/advice appreciated - thanks!

Answer 1

I'd like to suggest to use verified EC2 AMIs, for instance by Rightscale. You can not use the Rightscale as a service, but theirs AMIs are pretty stable and reliable.

UPDATE: I advice to use Amazon Linux Machine based on CentOS 6
