    Interested in discussing what the various group member's challenges are and how they are solving them. I have a very CPU-intensive batch app that I'd like to move into the cloud and have to integrate that with a web front-end in a different datacenter. Also interested in AWS applicability to long-running index search operations with local front end caching.
