Geoprocessing in the cloud

Interesting article in GeoInformatics (December 2009) entitled "Geoprocessing in the Clouds". The authors implement the 52North Web Processing Service on Google's and Amazon's cloud services.

They compare response times for both implementations and find that both scale well.

A more detailed paper describing the project can be found on the 52North website.
