Questions about running on a cloud

Post by Green »

If I use cloud computing, and run a virtual machine on my computer that goes through the likes of amazon or google, will it stay running on the host side even if I disconnect my computer or restard my home computer, etc? Short and sweet, spread love not war! :eo :? :) :D :( :o 8-) :twisted: :evil: :cry: :oops: :P :x :lol: :roll: :wink: :!: :?: :idea: :arrow: :| :mrgreen: :biggrin: :egeek: :ewink: :e?: :eo :e( :e)

If you keep the folding process running as a service and not linked to your console it will just continue running. Just use the standard installer. Never had issues with it.

You are not running a VM on your machine. You are running a VM on their cloud computers, with only a remote connection back to your PC. The cloud doesn't stop running when you disconnect.
