"Ken: PiCloud offers the easiest way to utilize the cloud for
compute-intensive applications; more specifically, applications in
scientific computing, high-performance computing, and batch
processing. With only a couple lines of code, scientists,
developers, and engineers on our platform can leverage thousands of
cores of computational power on-demand.
"Our goal is to make computing power a utility for scientists in
the same way that electricity is for modern society: available to
everyone, seemingly infinite in quantity, and readily accessible
with a flip of a switch. We achieve this by being a serverless
cloud. In other words, our users each get the power of a
supercomputer at their fingertips without having to design,
provision, or administer any servers."
