Amazon has this services where you can use virtual servers, either your custom or prebuilt publicly shared server images. The key point here is that Amazon has a lot of servers that can be used at any time.

So let’s get started. The first thing to do is sign up at Amazon EC2. I’ll be using Ubuntu on this.

You need Java JRE, do:

apt-get install sun-java5-jre

vim .bashrc

# Amazon Ec2
export EC2_HOME=~/.ec2
export PATH=$PATH:$EC2_HOME/bin
export EC2_PRIVATE_KEY=~/.ec2/pk-VGKIRWAKVSIEXEPVFQ2NSVQ4APUMYAC3.pem
export EC2_CERT=~/.ec2/cert-VGKIRWAKVSIEXEPVFQ2NSVQ4APUMYAC3.pem
export JAVA_HOME=/usr
type bash to reload your bash_rc

cd ~/.ec2
