Amazon EC2 is a Disruptive Technology
Topic: Technology 2:46 pm EDT, Aug 22, 2008

I wanted to pull up a new Ubuntu server. Normally that takes a few hours. I have to download a new CD image, install manually on a machine.

Not today. Today I typed:

ec2-run-instances ami-179e7a7e -k gsg-keypair

BAM. Ubuntu 8.04 image is up, and mine, and $0.10 an hour.

I feel like I just hit the crack pipe this is so powerful. This will change everything.
