High Performance Computing and Internet Services

Developing network-based services for more than a few thousand users has its own challenges and remains a specialty area with few available tools and few companies offering the required expertise.

One challenge is cost. While a PC program can essentially use the entire PC resources of several hundred Dollars, network services are shared by many users, often reducing the available hardware value per user to a few cents.

Another challenge is robustness. While a PC crash is inconvenient for a user, malfunctioning of a network service will affect thousands, and sometimes millions of users, and can result in loss of business and damages of millions of Dollars per hour for the service operator.

The Net-Scale founders have been on the leading edge of this field for over ten years and services which our staff developed have been in use by millions of users for many years saving the service providers money by reducing the hardware infrastructure, operating costs, customer care, and trouble shooting cost.
