Almost tempting to just go and build a cloud platform, though I have no money free at the moment. Interesting links, I didn’t spot those when looking into this originally.

Very useful for sort term spikes though :-) I was looking into building a cloud platform a couple of months ago. I was looking into using something like Proxmox VE but then I got side tracked and in the end I actually did nothing. Cloud computing and virtualised datacentres are the way forward but I think alot of these clouds will be private.

Made me tempted to try it out, especially the annual program since it's a bit cheaper than what I use currently... Though I am worried about the performance. I guess I'll have to snoop around for other articles on EC2. Second-hand account here: http://overstimulate.com/articles/counterstrike-battlefield-amazon-ec2-server A nice piece.
