Curious what the performance is compared to raw Tornado.</p>AlvinWangSun, 13 Sep 2009 01:42:06 -0000http://nextbigfuture.com/2008/09/third-tsunami-of-computing-web-20-is.html#comment-3783445<p>I am mainly talking about where the money will be and where people will create applications. I also believe that a form of mobile will be the next Tsunami after what I am calling True Cloud computing. That form will be barely recognizable from what we have now. We are at the Osborne level of mobile applications. I believe that anybody that predicts the future of mobile correctly is lucky rather than smart.</p><p> The 3rd Tsunami is about how True Clouds have such superior scaling, usability, programmability, that they will inevitably surpass the currently prevalent client/server architecture. As I said App Engine is the first true Cloud Platform. I do not care about how much CPU, disk, or concurrent users that I have. It will scale to cover the planet. It may not win like CPM and Dos turned into Windows.</p><p>Folding@home is a current example. The problem is that few problems can wait until your home PC has the cycles to take care of it. Programming an application that way is hard. If I could write an application that could reliably run on a global cloud based on spare cycles, that would be cool. As it is, it is cool but has no impact.</p><p></p>AlvinWangFri, 14 Nov 2008 20:10:20 -0000
