Hi Dana, Yes, we get VPC + EMR working but I'm not the person who deploys it. It is related to subnet as Alex points out.
Just to want to add another point, spark-ec2 is nice to keep and improve because it allows users to any version of spark (nightly-build for example). EMR does not allow you to do that without manual process.
