For Adalog (and Ada-Europe, see http://www.ada-europe2014.org for an example of a site powered by Ada/AWS), I used shares of virtual machines. I have complete access to the machine, including choosing my OS among many, installing software, running whatever I want, and connecting through ssh. For info, my provider is Gandi. Cheap and very convenient. Good support too. > And how difficult is it to setup an Ada+AWS system remotely onto the server? > It's not different from a local machine. In my case, I'm running Debian, so I installed Gnat+AWS with a couple of "apt-get install" through ssh. I transfered my sources with FTP, and recompiled. I also installed Webmin to create users and launch the program at start-up without having to fiddle with parameter files. -- J-P.
