[ Cloud Computing ] Re: Client side testing from a Cloud

Hi Rodrick,

We are developing a product, 80legs.com, that can do exactly what you
want. It runs java code on hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands
of distributed computers (we use Plura Processing so we can scale it
up to about 50,000 distributed nodes right now). We can use it to run
your java jar to connect to your server for load testing quite
easily. We were even thinking of packaging up a product specifically
to load test servers like yours. Our interface should be pretty
simple for you to use.

You can contact us through the website (http://80legs.com/
contact.html) to learn more if you are interested.

Regards,
Brad
