Amazon web services – now with Windows

In the October newsletter from the Amazon Web Services (AWS) team they announce that you will soon be able to run Microsoft Windows on the EC2 service.

“Starting later this Fall, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) will offer you the ability to run Microsoft Windows Server or Microsoft SQL Server. Today, you can choose from a variety of Unix-based operating systems, and soon you will be able to configure your instances to run the Windows Server operating system. In addition, you will be able to use SQL Server as another option within Amazon EC2 for running relational databases.”

How freakin’ cool would it be to able to run Domino in a hosted mode on AWS?
