There are many reasons but a few from the top of my head are: 1) The whole system is running on Amazon's Elastic Beanstalk (via Docker). Beanstalk provisions 3 instances for every site (1 Web, 1 Worker/cron, and 1 RDS) for every app with ELB on front. 2) It makes installing updates easy and automatic using deployment scripts which we have on every site. 3) Everything (web/cron/database) is configured to scale up and down automatically, i.e. new servers start as per demand. This may not be possible otherwise. |
