Node.js latest stable with Express, MEAN, LoopBack, slc and Monitoring
StrongLoop | 2.0*Linux/Unix, Amazon Linux 2014.03 - 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Please update this AMI!
This is still using a T1 instance which is very slow and also using old version of Node and Strongloop.
https://docs.strongloop.com/display/SL/Amazon+EC2 is based on old version of Strongloop, we can't even use ARC on this version.
Tried upgrading Node and Strongloop manually and the whole thing doesn't even work.
Can Strongloop please do an AMI with the latest version and test whether it works on an EC2 instance?

Loopback rocks, the server setup, kind of
Loopback comes working. That may be enough for testers.
For who wants the seriuos stuff... Since the Amazon Linux is a rolling-release distro, it is just a metter of upgrading it to get it to the newest, as is with the Loopback stack itself, just issue the update command to grab the latest.
But what I'm stuck with is the nodejs version. Right now, latest node is 0.12, but the Amazon Linux got a 0.10 and that's it. I managed to install nvm and the latest 0.12.7 from there, but so I got stuck with the path hell.
The MongoDB specifics for Amazon Linux are not applyed as well. You needs to go through its documentation and make it yourself.
For last, the Stong-PM service installation is not compatible with the Amazon Linux, so do not expect to use it to get your project running as a service. I was required to setup "forever-service" (very nice by the way) to get my projects running as services with Strong-pm.
Can't use t2.micro
Hi, this is a nice ami, but I can't seem to find the options to use it with t2 series.
I figure it is because it use some of old EBS that t2 doesn't support anymore.
Any chance you could upgrade this?
We as developers that use amazon first as client demo will much appreciate it.
Thanks a bunch.
