How can I host, say a Snap webapp, on amazon? In other words, what are the first steps I need to take - as I am completely clueless.

Any tips appreciated!

I think this question might be too vague to be helpful to others. It sounds like you need to read some docs on AWS, read the docs on snap, and then see what specific questions you have. –  jberryman Jun 26 '12 at 15:18

Thanks a bunch! I am kind of worried about security though. How can I ensure that I am securing everything correctly in Haskell etc... –  drozzy Jun 26 '12 at 5:44
