As was previously announced to be within a few shorts weeks of becoming publicly available, Amazon Web Services has launched the official public beta of its AWS EC2 Persistent Storage Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) solution. Something tells me there's going to be a lot of smiling faces launching new EC2 instances today. ;-)

This last April Amazon Web Services let out some slack on the leashes of a top secret project they'd been working on only to pull back that slack at the last second, ripping from the clutches of 1000's upon 1000's of adoring fans the possibility of gaining even the slightest peek at what was under the covers anytime in the near-term future. That top secret project was a persistent storage solution, the lack of which many folks have long since criticized as the Achilles heel of Amazon Web Services EC2 cloud computing platform since it public beta launch in August of 2006.
Today, it seems, that a bit more slack has been released, but as far as I can tell, this time there's no pulling back. Are you ready?
