10. Challenge of Avatar Movie
One frame of certain shots, it's 24 frames per second,
took 100 computer hours to render. Just one second
was 2,400 hours.
Weta operates a 10,000-square-foot facility that uses
HP BL2x220c blades to process the effects for
AVATAR and other films. The computing core
contains some 40,000 processors and 104 terabytes
of RAM.

48. Solution
Usage public cloud with lower-priority applications
such as absence reporting and expense reporting.
Usage private cloud for privacy and security
where companies will do some of their computing
internally, possibly in a private cloud, while other
tasks will be offloaded to the public cloud
