We are currently using Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances to perform natural language processing tasks on large text corpora, including a collection of approximately 117,000 books from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hathitrust.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HathiTrust<\/a> that spans four centuries and several languages. Our EC2 instances also support development at MITH, host prototype applications, and archive MITH\u2019s activity in social media channels. This generous award from Amazon will allow us to expand all of these operations.
