Interestingly, we tried using 'aws' instead of 'ec2' as a keyword, but the noise level around it was way too high. Results included GPU applications, the wireless spectrum, and the American Welding Society...

How does Openstack compare with AWS, from a devops standpoint? Is the learning curve similar or steeper?

From what we've seen with our customers, there's some initial heavy lifting around virtualizing your infrastructure, but once the infrastructure is running OpenStack, using it is remarkably similar to AWS/EC2

The responsive layout is completely broken in iOS 7.1 Safari. There's way too much extra padding, so each line is only 1-3 words long.

Interesting, I actually work on a large scale private cloud storage product which sells primarily to enterprise and government. Customers cannot get enough of it, and there is definite move away from traditional enterprise data storage using SAN/fibre channel and block storage over NFS, towards object storage on commodity hardware and HTTP/REST. AWS protocols are becoming the standard everyone uses for HTTP data, as it means applications built for S3 can usually just be pointed to a new endpoint. I do wish there was a real effort to standardize this however, because most vendors only really support a subset of the options and headers, especially stuff like versioning, multi-part-write, and Amazon has changed their spec numerous times already.

I tried to search for S3-API-compliant alternatives to amazon. So far I've only come up with the S3 wikipedia entry:

Google Cloud Storage, Openstack Swift, Cloud.com’s CloudStack, Cloudian, Connectria's Cloud Storage, Eucalyptus, Nimbula, Riak CS, Ceph, Caringo, and LunaCloud

Some of the above may already be defunct -- do you happen to know any that I've missed?

The product I work is called Hitachi Content Platform, you can see S3 listed under the "Integration" section of this page: http://www.hds.com/products/file-and-content/content-platfor...

I believe EMC has a similar functionality in Atmos. http://www.emc.com/collateral/software/data-sheet/h5770-atmo...

Great article, excellent interpretation of the google trends data. As a search marketer I concur with your findings and I think you are spot on in the interpretation of the google data.
