LAMP 2.1 introduces the new ability to select what software is loaded into the Apache web server.  By default new instances will only enable PHP and PHP suhosin.

To enable Python (mod_wsgi) select "python", for Ruby (mod_passenger) select "ruby".

If you need to run legacy CGI applications select "mod_cgi".

There are also additional PHP modules that are available including APC (caching) and imagick (image processing).

Disabling all software will leave you with an instance that is suitable for static web hosting (low memory footprint, no executable files).
