"Trello is in the process of being moved to Amazon AWS where it will not be affected by further data center issues."
I guess that's called the power of positive thinking?

I hope they move Trello back to "real" servers and not this AWS, once the datacenter is stabilized.
I think that AWS is overrated and overpriced and it's a big asset of FogCreek to still use real data centers, after all they started this thing before AWS even existed. I don't know if StackExchange or FogBugz would run so good on these AWS-servers with bad IO.
It's great though if they now have the chance to quickly overflow Trello to AWS in case of problems or high demands and buy a new correctly-priced, powerful server to put at Peer 1 a week later!
