Can a solo developer rent a cloud VM running POWER at a reasonable price yet?
- cipherboy 7y agoYes! Free if you're working on an open source project (check out Oregon State University's Open Source Lab's POWER offerings: VMs (+/- GPUs) and Jenkins integrations). That's what I use. If you're working on something commercial, you might check out http://integricloud.com/ http://integricloud.com/ -- looks like they start at start at $250/mo for a dedicated system (with 16-cores). If you check out their billing rates, it sounds like you can get a single core/thread though for about ~10-20 a month: http://integricloud.com/content/base/managevms.html?viewrates=1 http://integricloud.com/content/base/managevms.html?viewrate... (I've never used integricloud but someone commented on my comment mentioning OSUOSL from a week ago)
