In this video from the LAD’13 Lustre Developer Conference, Gabriele Paciucci from Intel presents: Deploying a Lustre Cluster for HPC Applications in the Cloud.

Motivation for AWS Lustre: Amazon is growing its HPC capabilities, and we believe there are some HPC workloads moving to the cloud. Amazon has several storage related services, such as EBS and S3, but there is no shared file system service. Since many existing HPC applications have been built to assume a shared file system is available, it seems there is a need for a parallel file system like Lustre.
