Hi Suresh,
Your response is very helpful. The need is not currently urgent, so I
will wait for thrift API integration.
Thanks,
Emre.

Hi Emre,
You already hit all the right links. So if you are trying to integrate
right away, then the current trunk needs work, but the last release
(v0.11) will work with EC2. But the new thrift based API is with trunk
and GFac was being refined to do better monitoring and EC2 monitoring
needs to be updated.
A student proposed a GSoC project to revisit the current EC2
integration and port it to using JClouds library [1].
So here is what I will suggest:
* You can use Java based clients with 0.11 release as of today
* Wait until, lets say end of may to integrate with thrift API (hence
all the language bindings) and improvised monitoring using jclouds.
* Once integrated with JClouds, it will buy in integration with other
cloud providers listed here [2].
If you are planning to use it right away, then I will look up for
papers and other documentation on current implementation - [3].

Hi All,
I was curious to know the status of Airavata support for job
submission to EC2 resources ?
I found Heshan's blog here:
http://heshans.blogspot.com/2013/04/run-ec2-jobs-with-airavata-part-i.html
and the wiki here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AIRAVATA/Amazon+EC2+Integration
And the BioVLAB wiki:
http://biohealth.snu.ac.kr/wiki/index.php/BioVLab_:_Biology_Virtual_Collaborative_Lab
Once the api is ready for registry/submission (to bypass XBaya's gui),
I assume it will be possible to setup and submit jobs to EC2
programatically
(assuming proper EC2 certificate setup etc).
Any additional references/comments/insights etc. on EC2 Airavata
usage would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Emre.
