an inital aws script

[hunterowens]

Hey, I've added an initial AWS script-

Some things are not finished, ie, command line args, and such. This is an initial idea of how to do it.

However, the ssh function should be able to handle some sort of keypair auth.

This is cool, but I'm not sure what this is supposed to do. Shouldn't this be more generic?

One thought I had in this direction was an arbitrary cloud deployment script: you'd pass it the module and function and it would automatically run it in a distributed, platform-transparent way. Doing this right is something I still need to think about, though — that's more in the vein of the Polymer project @cioc and I were working on last Spring.

It probably should be, I'm just trying to figure out what is looks like.

The ideal version: Have a problem you need to distribute but don't have
access to resources to distribute them on?

Answer a: Some sort of script that spins up and down resources [AWS, GCE,
Azure] to use with eisenhower.
Answer b: An example that shows how to use Eisenhower with boto/AWS, GCE,
Azure and let people run from there.
