Uniface Cloud Data Storage TODAY?

Compuware has announced that the main topic for Uniface 10 will be Cloud Computing.
But it will take some time before that becomes available.
So what can we do with Uniface in The Cloud today?

I have a suggestion: store data in the Cloud.

Amazon.com offers cloudy data storage in MySQL in it's RDS service.
Uniface has a MySQL driver.

I looked at the specs of both and it should be possible to access a MySQL database in the Amazon cloud with a Uniface application.
And Uniface being Uniface, it does not necessarily need to be a Web application.

So who will be the first one to try?
