[Hidden-tech] Looking for MySQL cluster guru, low cost 1 or 2 U Linux servers, short term (1 month) server rental

[Michael Giles]

Andy,

#3 seems like a perfect use of Amazon's EC2 service 
(http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html?node=201590011).  Essentially, you 
get as many dedicated servers as you want and you only pay for the time 
that you use them (10 cents/hour).  If you use a server for a whole 
month, I believe it works out to about $70.  But if you only use it for 
an hour, or a day, you just pay for that fraction.  It is great for just 
this type of work (where you want a relatively large number of machines 
for a short amount of time).
