GNM measures the savings from using AWS in terms of reduced lead times.
“It takes … less than 10 minutes to set up a new
instance in Amazon EC2 and perhaps another 20 minutes to connect to the infrastructure and build the
server type, for a total lead time of half an hour. This compares to a possible three weeks for hardware to be delivered and installed plus additional time for budget
approval.” Mike Bracken GNM’s Director of Technology Development,
