I'm looking for help with initial network setup - simple tasks that a devops guru could probably do in a day or two. Are there any services that make this readily available? I don't necessarily want to learn vagrant/docker/chef/puppet as a) it's not my core competency and b) I'm not looking to build an on demand scalable infrastructure that can handle 100000 users.
For example, I need help with an initial setup of an AWS VPC, IPSec VPN to local network, setting up route 53 with DNS for a site hosted within the VPC (small company like 10 users, but may want access from phones/tablets), a micro openVPN instance for remote access, 1 sql box, 1-3 linux boxes. Weekly snapshots of all drives.
Because of the nature of our work, we can't do something like heroku or elastic beanstalk. Code deployment, updates, etc. I can handle, but learning all the AWS ins and outs is probably better left to the experts. But where are they?
Oh yeah, and I'd like the entire thing replicated in real time to another AZ for disaster recovery.
