Nanex NxCore was once in the Amazon cloud -- not sure if they're still offering this, but if so then I think it would be relatively effortless (aside from the obvious paying the monthly cost and writing to their API), as their system already archives all the data on your local machine automatically.

server and local machine dont have much difference respective to software... i can put linux or windows on a remote box "server" load the iqfeed api on their just like my local box....i just wanna serve myself..... then if i have a web app i can use my data as a resource... amoungst other advantages
