I am "cloud boy". I have had experience setting up large GPU compute clusters the manual way with ip tables, NFS mounts, ssh keys, ssh cloud configs scripts, service configs, and all of the unexpected troubleshooting that comes with that. It sucks. Now I have seen the light with virtual cloud solutions like AWS and I am in heaven! I can do what use to take me weeks in minutes. Need a 1000 node hadoop/cassandra/mysql cluster/sun grid/cluster? No problem! Need dynamic expansion/contraction? NO PROBLEM! Need a cloud AI optimizer? Oh wait, that doesn't exist yet... don't worry I am on it.
My current passion is focused on my cloud optimization, HR analytics, and general prediction engines.
