• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

AIX in cloud

I have not heard of anybody doing hosted Power. I imagine the price would be significantly higher than hosted x86 because of the huge premium on Power hardware and licensing.

I've been working with AIX for over 10 years now. Started on version 5.1, running 7.1 now.

Virtualization on Power is unbelievably complex.
 
Thanks . I know AWS can host linux systems. Just wasnt sure if something similar exists with AIX.
 
There is a company out there that is trying to get AIX on Power in the cloud. They are called Skytap. I don't know what the prices look like, but they are working on it. We did a proof of concept with them to put our dev environment up on Skytap. I am not sure what the outcome was of that project as I wasn't part of that one. I am more on the Linux/AWS side of things.
