Just wanted to drop in with some progress updates.
I didn't get as much done as I wanted to over the weekend. Most time was spent on getting the rest of the infrastructure set up on AWS, which included making some important decisions that took some time to thoroughly evaluate. I'm not going to release too many details, but as of right now RollerBot consists of 5 ec2 server instances (with more to come) and the important backend services are islanded and isolated from the Internet. The only server attached to the Internet is the web server, which it's self doesn't even have database access. Many steps have been taken and decisions made to ensure a secure platform. Now with that out of the way, I can continue marching forward with the code.
Code-wise, I spent a lot of time yesterday cleaning out the source tree of old/antiquated files and making an effort to improve the documentation (through phpdoc).
Today will be spend finishing off some of the backend services (daemon spawning and load balancing) and then working on some of the user services (private API call daemons, etc)
Thank you everyone for your continued interest and support. Things are starting to get exciting as everything is slowly starting to pull together
