Though the head of marketing claims that it’s no big deal, I can’t beg to differ more. Here’s a picture of the Storm On Demand Logo in Times Square.

Now, why’s this a big deal? It’s pretty rare for the guys in my department (System Engineering) to get much acknowledgement. For that matter, it’s even rare for most people to even get to work directly on something that is advertised in a local rag, let alone the biggest clip show on the planet.

For those that are completely unfamiliar, Storm On Demand is a “cloud hosting” solution that has been developed by my employer. In essence, I think of it as a rapid-deployment system for virtual servers. When I was asked to work on it some time ago, the “deployment” part of that was working. My job was to add the “rapid” part. To the best of my knowledge, they’re still using the process that I initially defined as “the best you can possibly do without dividing by zero.”

It might just be me, but even if I’m the only one that thinks so, that will have to do: This is fucking HUGE.
