AWS

Backstory

I love open source. I love ElasticSearch, I love the AWS cloud, and I love not getting compromised. Today, I'm putting a solution in production that I just have to tell someone about or I'm going to explode. If you love any of these things too, then read on my friend, because I've created something that can make your life easier.

If you work with the AWS CLI and it's cousins, you notice quickly that there are different versions and functionality depending on which version of python you use to install them. Therefore, I recommend setting up a virtual environment for each version of python, so you can always be working with the most functional packages and not have to create confusion in your root environment.
