I've been using Amazon ec2 for clustering for months now, from a software
perspective it's very similar to running real hardware. For my needs
(development) it's perfectly adequate, I've not benchmarked it against running
the same code on the raw hardware though.
Ashley,
Hi Ashley,
I'd love to try clustering on Amazon. Is there a good writeup somewhere
on how to configure & use mpi in the cloud?
Thanks!
Paul
