I'm going to install Magento on AWS Elastic Beanstalk t1.micro (free tier), on Windows or Linux + Nginx + Php-fpm + eAccelerator, CDN (cloudfront), MemcacheD.

I will ask my developer to make my website as fast as it can be with as much as possible, minimum AWS utilization.

My webstore will have <1000 SKUs and I'm not expecting the traffic without going into thorough SEO/PPC.

Now I have three questions:

Do I really need Nginx microcaching along with eaccelerator?
Do I need AWS Elastic Load Balancer with t1.micro tier for the sake of scalability (as I have heard that magento is resource hungry application, may fully utilize t1.micro AMI)
or can I replace AWS ELB with Nginx load balancer? In AWS Elastic Beanstalk?

I have a nginx with geoip, but it is not working rightly. The issue is the next: Nginx are getting geodata from $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] instead of $_SERVER['HTTP_X_HAPROXY_IP'], which have the real client ip. So, the reported geodata belongs to my server ip instead of client ip. Does anybody where… >>> More
