Editor's Notes
Make sure that you mention how attendees can submit questions at any time during the presentation. You’ll select ones to answer live and can follow up with the group, providing answers to any that we aren’t able to address.
This is the “here’s the ingredients for a HPC cloud” slide.
Todd can speak to the other results, and may we list some of the high points here.
We’re showing overall results, but talk about the other benchmarks too (CPU, Memory and Storage)
Discuss why there is a gap in performance with the other providers. Talk about why the vast differences. Because we employ all the things we just talked about, etc.
Here is where we segue over to Chris, to provide color around his decision.
