Cloud computing for small research groups
Cloud computing for small research groups in computational science and engineering: current status and outlook
FREE-DOWNLOADHL Truong… – Computing, 2011
Abstract Cloud computing could offer good business models for small computational science
and engineering (CSE) research groups because these groups often do not have enough human
resources and knowledge to manage the complex- ity of computational and data .
Paul, good point.I think Cloud may be victim of its very early steps, when end-user crotnol, automation, availability and security were still in their infancy. Now the solutions have matured but the risk perceptions are still very present in customers’ mind share.There is also the perception that a server in your own lab is more secure, even if Cloud providers can deploy and monitor more security than a single company where IT is not a core competence. What do you think?
