AmazonAmazon hails era of \'utility supercomputing\'
LONDON, U.K. -- Cloud computing giant Amazon Web Services is heralding the era of utility supercomputing, whereby massive computational resources and storage requirements can be accessed on demand.
Speaking at the launch of Intel's Xeon E5 processor family in London this week, AWS technology evangelist in residence, Dr. Matt Wood, said that cloud computing was a utility service like electricity and gas, in that it allows consumers and businesses to pay for consumption of a service on demand. The cloud's capacity for storing and processing Big Data is only limited by the infrastructure it sits on, explained Wood. While the technology can act as "friction", extending the time it takes to move from an idea to a result, more powerful processors are helping to reduce this lag time, opening up new opportunities for a whole range of industries. In particular, scientific and financial organisations with massive computational demands will be able to rent resources from the cloud to be able to do their work - whether it happens to be product modelling, simulation or informatics - without having to invest in huge infrastructure. "We are entering the era of utility supercomputing where anybody can dial up computational resources and massive storage requirements on the fly," said Wood. "Traditionally these organisations would have to provision for 10-15 percent over the peaks in demand, but the cloud allows for bursty scalability, lowering the...

119 of 123 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Best Titanic movie yet. Cameron's film has its moments, but in truth I only liked it for the chance it gave me to see a great old ocean liner brought to life again on screen. In "A Night To Remember", the effects are not nearly so impressive, but the story is far better. It's very much in the style of a docudrama, but its a docudrama about one of the most fascinating and enduring stories in... Read the full review › Published on December 9, 2002 by Darren B.

The Amazon.co.uk web-site describes the aspect ratio as 4:3 (1.33:1). The DVD packaging claims the aspect ratio to be 16:9 (1.78:1). It is in fact a letterbox presentation that has been stretched (east-west) from the cinema 15:9 (1.66:1) matted version...
