StarterAWS

StarterAWS NodeJS module for AWS instances easy management : start/stop/reboot.

Why ?

Because ecchymose in the nose.

Tired of checking frenquently my AWS instances status, I will soon combined it with one angular directive to make it available in your administration UI.

But first can be used at your node application startup, and force a clean start of your AWS instances if needed.
