Re: [Fab-user] Best way to sort and maintain a list of server ?

[Andres Riancho]

After some issues with maintaining lists like that, I decided not to
maintain any. Let me explain... I'm an AWS user, so what I do is to
tag my servers accordingly when they are spawned, and then when I want
to run a command across all my web servers in the production
environment, I simply query the AWS API using boto to retrieve all the
instances which match those tags, get the IP addresses, and then run
the command on them.
