Amazon EC2 API

From their site: Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. Just as Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) enables storage in the cloud, Amazon EC2 enables "compute" in the cloud. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon's proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 changes the economics of computing by allowing you to pay only for capacity that you actually use.
