I ran across this article about AWS (Amazon Web Services) where it describes the great lengths they are going to for acquiring data storage. This particle statement is what struck me as being especially applicable to Bitcoin:
Snowmobile aims to migrate massive datasets (think petabytes) to AWS. The argument for the hybrid cloud is that some workloads are just too ridiculous to move.
"Too ridiculous to move"! Isn't Bitcoin's blockchain already beyond that?
So, are there any Bitcoin cloud servers available or is it just a massive security risk that keeps such a thing from happening? I would think a shared or virtual server connected to a common blockchain database would be valuable?
