Pentaho in the Cloud

This is a step by step guide to setting up Pentaho on Amazon EC2.
If you haven’t already done so, you’ll need to sign up with EC2.
Once you’ve signed up, log in to the AWS Management Console and launch a new instance. I usually create a spot request because I just want a sandpit and it can be significantly cheaper (but don’t tell anyone or it will get more expensive). A small instance is fine here. Choose the most basic Fedora package (as of writing “Basic Fedora Core 8″, ami-84db39ed). We’ll install everything else ourselves.
