Misleading title. Should be "This rock solid website is managed by a Raspberry Pi and powered by Amazon S3". Interesting set-up nonetheless.

yeah... if you can't get a pi to generate some html, then you're doing it wrong. I actually host sites on a pi and it can handle a lot of traffic.

I also host sites that get quite a lot of traffic on a VPS with 128 MB of RAM with no trouble.

Sure enough... It might be possible to host the site on the Pi itself. However, I think that's probably risky.

My main concern is that the Pi is powered by an Ethernet controller that is connected to the USB bus, and it might drop out in special circumstances

Thanks for your comment. Will fix the title.
