Spouting Shite

Flexiscale from Xcalibre

We were lucky enough to get a visit from Tony Lucas from Flexiscale at the last meeting of the AWS user group.

Tony told us the story behind Flexiscale and how he decided back in 2004 that what the world really needed was a proper utility computing infrastructure, so he and his team at xcalibre created FlexiScale. His story is very interesting as for many years he was developing a technology and business model that nobody understood!  All that changes with the introduction of the Amazon AWS services, something that opened the worlds eyes to cloud computing and utility computing.

Flexiscale is the only provider of utility computing in Europe and one of only a small few in the world. I know that many people who attended the presentation will try out the service, it wont be a long time before Flexiscale becomes a large cale player in the market. Good luck Tony.
