Auto start nodejs app on Amazon AMI

Any idea about the best way to auto start my node app on Amazon Linux AMI? I've seen a few articles on this, but not sure which is the most robust?

you can use User data to do what you want, read http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/user-data.html

Create new EC2 instance from the console as you'll do normally, when you get to Configure Instance Details page, you'll see a field User data, just enter a shell script to start your node application

You can review the output of the execution at /var/log/cloud-init-output.log
