Re: [CODE4LIB] Fwd: New, lower pricing for Amazon EC2, RDS, and ElastiCache
For production servers that are online 24/7 (or anything over 76 percent), we use the heavy utilization model. This gives a cost of $20.01 per month for a small instance with a one year commit, including the amortized fee, or $14.91 with a three year commit. The break even point on going with a three year commit is 19 months. Thanks, Cary On Tue, Mar 6, 2012 at 3:18 PM, Peter Murray peter.mur...@lyrasis.org wrote: We had this discussion last month about using EC2 for production services. They have dropped their pricing again, so a reserved 'small' instance is now $17.57/month after paying the one-time reservation fee of $160 for a 1-year term. That averages out to about $31/month.

I'm no longer on dial-up (thankfully), but I do know people who are, and trying to retrieve e-mail for several hours is not a pleasant experience. Plus, since I try to save the majority of my mail in case I need it at some point in the future, I often run close to the maximum storage limit for my account, so a large attachment could easily put me over the limit, hindering receipt of additional e-mails. If the information is available in the body of the message as well as at a link provided in the body, why is it necessary to include a large attachment as well? (p.s. I apologize for sounding harsh. In other words, I long for the days of plain-text-only discussion lists.) Thank you, Bryan Baldus Cataloger Quality Books Inc.

[CODE4LIB] CAS Authentication for ILLiad and Aeon
Ok, I promised this like 8 weeks ago and I apologize for being so late http://resources.library.yale.edu/illiadcasinstructions/ Download the 3 things on that page and you should be good to go for adding CAS authentication to ILLiad and Aeon. I will be loading these up to SourceForge once I find my account info and will follow up again. Feel free to ask questions and don't slaughter me, that is the first pass at instruction, I hope I didn't leave out anything major. It is also important that I give credit where credit is due. All of the work documented is based on the implementation of CAS for Aeon by Jay Terray who works here at Yale in the Beinecke Library. I will also mention that while the instructions are for CAS, you could easily adopt this authentication method to ILLiad to use any sort of external authentication/authorization system you have. Questions, just ask. -mike ___ Michael Friscia Manager, Digital Library Programming Services Yale University Library (203) 432-1856
