The Australian IT article on Cyclopic Energy

As we mentioned last time, Cyclopic Energy has been attracting some attention in the last few months for our use of cloud computing services to deliver complex wind simulations for the wind energy and construction industries.

So we were pleased when Ian Grayson, a leading Australian IT journalist who has been covering cloud computing closely, contacted Rick Morgans to research an article featuring us for The Australian. “Super computers when you need them” is a special report in today's issue of The Australian IT, and we think it sheds some light on the practical aspects of our business, explaining the tools we use to deliver very large, high resolution wind simulations in a matter of days.

This has been a good opportunity to catch up with Ian Grayson's broader coverage of cloud computing, and other IT news, both in The Australian and at his blog Hydrapinion.
