>> What operating system is required, any ?

Right Now EC2 is a beta version, but works really well. You can use by
now only UNIX and they don't support all type of cores. The usually use
Fedora Core4, Fedora core6, Debian (Ubuntu), etc.

>> how do you create the image, with a custom VM app ?

In my case, I started with a public image from amazon (Fedora core 4
Base), and then I installed Java, Ant, Red5 and some utils stuff. You
can too use a system images converter from QEMU and other programs for
simulate machines , but I don't have tried. Once you have a instance
running you can modify the images and create the number you want
instances.

Works great, and S3 (Simple Storage Service) is another great service,
totally usable for aplicactions with Red5 involved. Im working to
connect Red5 with S3 rigth now.

I was thinking about use fuse, and save all objects in S3(Amazon) as
local files for the system, but there are two problems: Fuse is not open
source (and free neither) and I'd save the objetcts for each
modification. And using a Red5 srever as client of another red5 server
to cath the streamin (In my aplicaction there is only one stream
published and every client connect to it) but I'm not sure, maybe is a
ugly way to solve the problem.

Great! Keep us on the ball.
