| pting | for the elastic load balancer, you guys think the ip is static? | 19:55 |
|---|---|---|
| pting | ...i mean, when you instantiate one | 19:56 |
| pting | nevermind, googled the answer... http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/thread.jspa;jsessionid=88709C264540DB950C1E3C2B96685A2F?messageID=136109𡎭 | 19:58 |
| erichammond | pting: Not only is the Elastic Load Balancer IP address not static, but it could be returning any of a number of IP addresses on a given DNS lookup. I.e., three requests by three different people at the same time could return three different IP addresses. This is part of the nature of the load balancer. | 21:10 |
| flaccid | erichammond: yeah so aws' definition of elastic ip: http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/ being static is somewhat of a misnomer as they are not static when doing elastic load balancing, right ? | 23:41 |
| erichammond | flaccid: Elastic IP addresses do not mix with Elastic Load Balancing. Those are two different features. | 23:42 |
| flaccid | thats right. i'm referring to the fact their both share the name elastic.. | 23:42 |
| flaccid | their=they | 23:42 |
| flaccid | erichammond: my point is just that people do seem to assume that the elastic ips in load balancing are static due to this definition | 23:50 |
| erichammond | I just assume "Elastic" is Amazon's favorite word: Elastic Compute Cloud, Elastic IP Address, Elastic Load Balancer, Elastic Block Store, ... | 23:51 |
| flaccid | this is true | 23:52 |
