For anyone running RabbitMQ inside Convox (AWS rack, not a new kubernetes rack), I would love to know how you configured it. Do you run a cluster, and if so how do you handle peer discovery, e.g. through the AWS auto-scaling group plugin? Are there any gotchas, e.g. nodes coming and going during deploy?

@julian - how do you run RabbitMQ in your local rack? do you run it as parto of your local dev env?

@alon We ended up setting it up outside of Convox, using Terraform to wire up some auto-scaling groups. Hypothetically you could make a Gen1 app instead; I don’t recall why we chose one over the other.
