This project fully automates the provisioning of Apache Metron on Amazon
EC2 infrastructure. Starting with only your Amazon EC2 credentials, this
project will create a fully-functioning, end-to-end, multi-node cluster running
Apache Metron.
+Warning: Amazon will charge for the use of their resources when running
Apache Metron. The amount will vary based on the number and size of hosts,
along with current Amazon pricing structure. Be sure to stop or terminate all
of the hosts instantiated by Apache Metron when not in use to avoid unnecessary
charges.

Getting Started
---------------
### Prerequisites
-The host that will drive the provisioning process will need to have
[Ansible](https://github.com/ansible/ansible), Python and PIP installed. In
most cases, a development laptop serves this purpose just fine. Also, install
the Python library `boto` and its dependencies.
+The computer used to deploy Apache Metron will need to have
[Ansible](https://github.com/ansible/ansible), Python, Maven, SSH, and Git
installed. Any platform that supports these tools is suitable, but the
following instructions cover only Mac OS X. The easiest means of installing
these tools on a Mac is to use the excellent [Homebrew](http://brew.sh/)
project.
-```
-pip install boto six

Why is the boto install instruction removed? When I run ec2 install, I get
the following error: "boto required for this module"
