Photoscan: AWS EC2 cluster computing
« on: January 30, 2017, 07:16:06 PM »
Is there any information about AWS EC2 cluster computing using Photoscan?

I'm interested in setting when I have N relatively weak machines ( for example 8 CPUs, 32gb RAM ).

1. As I understand these machines need to have shared HDD? is it ok, to just mount this HDD via network?
2. What about peak memory, will it be a problem? For example if I have one big server with 256gb RAM and processed some big project that requare > 32Gb RAM can I process same project on N weaker machines(8 CPUs, 32gb RAM)?

Did you end up with and answer or work this one out with aws?
I'm looking at the Amazon service to process, how has your experience been?
Do you have any advice?

Thanks

I'm interested, too.

Which instance did you take?
