Semi-technical person - how to operate a node?

Hi r/cardano,

I would like to give operating a cardano node a shot before Shelley releases. My idea is to use a cloud server (AWS) to run it on rather than my own machine.

I have some experience in programming, but I am having great trouble with figuring out how to get it running. For starters, from what I understand NixOS is not supported on AWS so I would use Debian instead?

I have tried understanding the documentation on https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-node, but with little success. Is there a resource that simplifies the process or a guide that is not highly-technical?

I want to use this process as a learning tool, not just for the end product of running a node, but it seems that my knowledge is below entry-level required to make the github documentation useful. Any advice appreciated.
