Parse Server + MongoDb Backend on AWS

[NglSR]

Hello guys, thanks for all the inputs on the other Issues posted. Can someone please indicate how to deploy the backend on AWS. I'm new into dev, my app still in development and hosted on Parse. I have been looking a guide or tutorial online since I got the bad news. Thanks in advance.

here an open source backend: http://www.baasbox.com I hope is useful... I don't have use it yet.

Thanks for your info. But Parse server is also open source now. Why should we use something else we're not familiar. And talking about the cloud service, I'm afraid it will become another parse.com. So my opinion is to trust myself. Maybe host by ourself is better choice.

@bagusflyer thanks.... And sorry for the link above. Do you know the way around deploying Parse Server+Mongodb on AWS?

ec2?
please refer to https://github.com/ParsePlatform/parse-server-example

[NglSR]

@mfkenson Thanks Brother, but thats the Heroku parse-server guide. Im looking for the deploy guide on AWS.

@NglSR Under AWS EC2, you can follow the same steps mentioned in "For Local Development".
After you clone the repo, you may edit index.js and set the DATABASE_URI if your mongodb is not installed in the same EC2 instance.

NgISR, I am waiting for you or someone else to publish the whole success steps of migrating parse server to AWS EC2.

I've created a AWS AMI if anyone wants to use it. It includes MondoDB, NodeJS and the Express example already setup. You just need to edit the /var/www/parse/app.js file with your API keys and run it using node app.js.

The AMI Name is: Parse-Server (located in Europe Ireland) (you can add it using this guide)

Here is a HowTo Step by Step to create a Parse Server on your own Server.

We'll continue working with other providers to create easy ways to launch your own Parse servers and migrate to popular clouds, and we'll blog/tweet/wiki about everything.

@niraj-shah @JcMinarro @gfosco Thanks for the support.... @niraj-shah can't find the AMI.

[niraj-shah]

Sorry @NglSR. I forgot to mention the AMI is located in the Europe Ireland region.

[NglSR]

@niraj-shah, thanks... Found it. Thanks a lot.

[niraj-shah]

No worries @NglSR. Also, if you right click on the AMI name and select "Copy AMI", you can copy it any region you want.

You may need to launch a new server from the AMI and create a new image from that instance to copy

[niraj-shah]

@NglSR Strange! Looks like the AMI can only be created in Europe Ireland. I just tried the Copy AMI option and got the same error. I've updated the EBS permissions and made it public. Copying should work now!

@niraj-shah @christianmarth Guys, thanks a lot.
