[AWIPS #RHI-479315]: Helping set up a Met Lab at College of Charleston

Hi Mike,

Sorry for the delayed response.  Those questions are hard to answer, as they 
depend
on many variables... The specs of the dedicated local edex machine, the size 
and speed
of your network bandwidth, and even I assume, the specs of the local machine 
Cave is 
running on.
I am fairly sure that quite a few labs/professors and their students are using 
our 
cloud instance of edex, and as of now I haven't heard any significant 
complaints about
latency times.  This isn't to say they don't exist, just that I haven't heard 
anything
about it as of now.
You always have the option of doing both as well.  You can set up your own edex 
machine
and have full control and access to it, and then always point to our cloud 
instance if 
you wish to.  Having your own local edex allows for much more control of data, 
but does
require (I would say significantly) more maintenance/expertise.
I hope this helps answer your question a bit.
Thanks.
