AWS Windows Instance Set Up Step 4: Installing Open Source Software for Data Science

This video (revised 8-13-2015) is part 4 in a series of 5 videos that show how to set up a Windows virtual machine (instance) using Amazon Web Services and then provision it with Python and R (and some additional software) so that it can serve as a platform for doing some data science. In this video I show how to get an obtain open source software and install it on the Windows instance. The primary software I am installing is Python 2.7 and the statistics software R with the intention of using this platform to do some data science.

The software installed in this video is Firefox, ClamWin anti virus software, Clam Sentinel real-time virus scanning software based on ClamWin, Anaconda Python, the R statistics package, and the cygwin unix-like tools for Windows.

NOTE: It is very important to turn off Clam Sentinel while installing the rest of the software (especially Anaconda and cygwin).

A web page with the links for provisioning the Windows instance can be found at:
