3 jbase 5 Install on Amazon AWS a Primer This document assumes you have some understanding of Amazon AWS and Cloud computing in general. Amazon offers a free Kindle book on their website here. (Note that you can view Kindle books via a PC app, HTML5 Kindle app online, etc. not just the device of the same name). And of course you can use Wikipedia or a web search to familiarize yourself with Amazon AWS and the many products contained therein. For your convenience a glossary of terms is included. This document will focus on setting up jbase 5 using the free 1 year usage tier that is offered by Amazon. This tier account can be setup here: This document will focus on the Amazon EC2 (Elastic Computing Cloud) part of the platform. This is the central part that handles creating scalable virtual machines which you rent based on usage. Start the AWS management console and Select EC2 Change region in the top left Select Launch Instance (found below the region setting) AMI appears (Amazon Machine Image) You don t need to load the OS, it will simply copy a new base image for you.

5 Choose the default on-demand (i.e. Launch Instances ) option. This is a fixed price. The Spot Instances allow you to be more creative with pricing. It fluctuates based on supply and demand. Basically you set the maximum you are willing to pay per hour. The instance (Virtual Machine) only runs when the spot price is at or below the price you set. This could be used for batch processing where completion time is not a concern. i.e. archival data processing etc. You can choose the exact kernel you wish if this is Linux. Also you could add your jbase 5 tar now or download it from the running instance (choose the latter for now). Add Meta tag. This is just a way to name the instance so it is more manageable. Create key pair Generate and download. A key pair allows you to securely connect to your instance. Only one key pair is needed for all your instances. Configure Firewall - Use the default security group. You should now see the review page. Revision 1.0 August jbase 5 Install on Amazon AWS

Note that openssl with libcrypto.so.6 (i.e. package openssl098e.x86_64 0:0.9.8e-17.el6) is required and can be installed via yum. i.e. yum install openssl098e.x86_64 0:0.9.8e-17.el6 To setup SSH to work with other SSH clients. e.g. putty: The Amazon AWS Glossary is available here: Revision 1.0 August jbase 5 Install on Amazon AWS
