Cloud storage: Lower cost and increase uptime

Live Now! Today at 11:00 BST we’ve got Reg reader Dr Rob Johnson, HPC God at Mitsubishi UFJ Securities International, Tony Lock from Freeform Dynamics and Nick Hall at from Microsoft in our studio arguing that HPC is ready for prime time.

You can hear them explain to The Register's Tim Phillips how their experience shows that HPC isn't just on-premise, isn't just for experts, and isn't just for finance and scientific apps - and how combining HPC with the cloud will put you in control of how you use it, and how much you pay for it.

The broadcast is live and the panel will be taking your questions. If that sounds like the kind of thing you need to know more about, you can join us right here, for free.
