In the previous article, we discussed how developers can leverage containers to deploy applications, services, and websites at light speed and manage them all in one place with minimal configuration. Developers who link their AWS account to Solodev Cloud can leverage the power of deployments and launch CloudFormation applications in very little time. Deployments are ideal for Enterprise sys-admins interested in high availability server instances and managing single tenant applications. In addition to the granular permissions offered by Solodev Cloud, administrators can enjoy the added security provided by AWS Identity Access Management (IAM) to further control access to resources.

In addition to the aforementioned advantages, deployments allow developers to launch a wide variety of applications with EC2 instances, load balancers, and autoscaling. They can also manage manage server configurations with AWS OpsWorks that controls Chef recipes..

Since the deployments offered by Solodev tend to differ in technical complexity, Solodev recommends that users choose their deployments based on project requirements and the scale of their operation. For example, if a developer and their organization would like to make a lifestyle blog to accompany their brand, Solodev CMS Professional Edition is an optimal solution for their needs.
