I'm not quite sure what an "interface for Amazon" is.

If the goal is to make an easy install of Interchange 6 in the AWS environment we should be able to create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) from an EC2 instance with Interchange 6 all setup and ready to go. Other users could then use this AMI to launch their own EC2 instances and be up and running with IC6.

In AWS the EC2 t1.micro instances are free. I have an account with AWS. I'm not sure it it's pro or not.
