File Locking and File Sharing in the Cloud
Block storage is a key foundation to most file systems. File sharing and file locking are important processes for sharing cloud data resources, and for eliminating race conditions. Efficient implementation can make a significant mark on your system's and applications' performance levels. In this article, we use an open source example -- cloud platform Eucalyptus and its storage component Walrus -- to demonstrate how to modify block storage to improve the file-sharing and -locking mechanisms. Learn how to install Eucalyptus so you can deliver a top-notch Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform.

Forget the number of servers in your data center. Reverse the constraints!
Burst computing (or fan out) is one great use case for Cloud.
To get there, forget the way you used to code in the enterprise era. Forget the number of servers in your data center. Thats not the constraint anymore. This is web scale! And you better learn parallelism. When you learn parallelism - remember that the user is the king - respond to them in seconds. Thats your new constraint!
