I need a comprehensive understanding of the Best Practices for a Galaxy Production Server. 

(i) I've read "Running Galaxy in a Production Environment" and associated wikis
(ii) I saw the presentations "Building Scalable Galaxy (2010)", "Deploying Galaxy on the Cloud (2010)", and "Cloudman: Galaxy on the Cloud". 
(iii) I've searched the mailing list.


Are there any other undocumented pitfalls/tips that we should be aware of for a Cloudman/Amazon install? Security would be a high priority for this list.



Below are a list of references I've compiled for my own list:
