I'm working on a small project to get myself acquainted with the Amazon web services. I'm trying to make a simple web application; when a button is pressed a mapreduce job is launched and the output is returned on the browser. What would be the best way to do this? Also, is there a way to launch an amazon elastic mapreduce job via the command line?

Did you give this a look yet? http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID=873 It's from the dev side and might help you along.

yes, I've seen that. But how do you invoke a shell script remotely via a web application?
