Gmail: It’s cooler in the cloud
- mark_l_watson 15y agoEnergy efficiency is a great argument in favor of using cloud based web services. (We just put in solar panels on the roof of our house, so I am admitting my green biases.) Green-goodness aside, everyone wants to save money so it is a good idea to periodically take a hard look at your split between in-house servers, using AWS, Rackspace, etc., PAAS, and services like GMail or Yahoo mail.
