There are many cloud offerings, ranging from infrastructure as a service (IaaS) including bare metal rentals, platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS).
Amazon spans the IaaS/PaaS space, and are not the only (nor even the most cost effective) player in that space. AmiBroker will run happily on the equipment of any IaaS vendor. However, AmiBroker licensing restrictions still apply: "It is however NOT allowed to use single license to RUN SIMULTANEOUSLY on MULTIPLE machines connected via network, like for example running optimization on many machines in parallel. For that you must purchase license for every machine you are using simultaneously." http://www.amibroker.com/kb/2008/07/05/single-license-use-on-multiple-computers/ Mike --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "michaels_musings" <michaels_musi...@...> wrote: > > --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "Rob" <sidhartha70@> wrote: > > > > Hi TJ, > > > > I am considering building myself a new computer system. > > Hi TJ/Rob, > > Has anyone used AB on an Amazon cloud? > ( http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/ ) > > Not trying to jack the thread, but, the 3-5K for your new system might be > better off in Amazon rentals?
