I normally compute locally, either on my work laptop or via RDP on local modeling pc.
Some projects I work on have sensitive information and are either not allowed to compute in the cloud or you have to be very careful if you do. For this scenario, it would be nice to have an easy way to have our IT create a public cloud that we can use to batch models locally.
For projects that we are allowed to compute in the cloud, it would be nice to have a site where we could upload IDF/EPW, OSW, etc. and have it run at the best possible price. It would also be nice to have an option to run the files for the shortest possible time (for when there is a deadline or if you are trying to get quick feedback in a design charette or something).
