Tom White commented on HADOOP-884:
----------------------------------

I agree that long term it would be more efficient to call the EC2 web service 
via Java, and these scripts could be the basis for this. At the moment, I'm 
focusing on getting the scripts working smoothly.

> It is already possible to run Hadoop on Amazon EC2 
> (http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-hadoop/AmazonEC2), however it is a rather 
> involved, largely manual process. By writing scripts to automate (as far as 
> is possible) image creation and cluster launch it will make it much easier to 
> use Hadoop on EC2.
