AutoConnectToTeraTermWithEMR

AutoConnectToTeraTermWithEMR is a lightweight console utility designed to help you with the AWS-EMR screen management. To be more precise, the application allows you to obtain the IP string from the AWS-EMR screen and replace it with the value of the client app also known as teraterm.

EMR or Elastic MapReduce is an Amazon Web Service (AWS) designed to lend a hand with processing and analyzing large datasets. As an industry-leading cloud platform, it process the data quickly and cost-effective relative to the scale, considering that teams can run large analysis for the fraction of the cost of traditional on-premise clusters.

The cluster included EC2 instances that have the role of performing the work you submit. Once you launch the cluster, the app typically configures the instances with the apps of choice, but you need to select the size and type that best suits your processing needs. At the same time, the app automatically configures the EC2 firewall setting controlling network access to the instances.

The clusters are then launched in a Virtual Private Cloud, which is a logically isolated network that you can define. Here is where the AutoConnectToTeraTermWithEMR application comes into play as it makes the configuration considerably easier since you can easily extract the IP string.
