Hi Everyone,

I've added support for Amazon's-EC2 to the swift-on-cloud repository and 
tutorial. Please try the setup and documentation.

If you are on the swift allocation on AWS, you'd only need to get the 
IAM credentials file from the swift aws console:
https://swift.signin.aws.amazon.com/console 
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fswift.signin.aws.amazon.com%2Fconsole&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGCcWeMITvu7cmbPZWMClr-pk96VA>
Otherwise, you'd have to setup billing, and with micro instances prices 
are now the same as Google's Compute Engine (around $0.013/Hr/micro 
instance)

Cloud setup online doc:
https://github.com/yadudoc/swift-on-cloud/tree/master/aws

Git repo to clone:
https://github.com/yadudoc/swift-on-cloud.git

Once setup is done, do "connect headnode" and you can run the 
swift-cloud-tutorial
under your $HOME/swift-on-cloud/swift-cloud-tutorial folder on the 
headnode instance.

Feedback would be much appreciated.

PS: Remember to shut-down instances using the "dissolve" command.


Thanks!
Yadu
