Amazon is pretty cheap to get up and running and have a play - so I'd say get in there and get your hands dirty :)
Pick a Amazon AMI, which is a virtual image (Amazon has it's own Linux flavour too) of the whole OS already installed, and you can log in and do whatever needs doing very easily. One thing I will say - if you are looking to migrate a production application, make sure you do comparative load tests. In my experience (YMMV), I've found it tough to beat the performance of a physical box vs a Amazon Cloud server (even the high end ones), so be sure to know what you are getting into.
