Greetings Jing Li,

[I drove your email into our support system <address@hidden>. I hope you don't 
mind.]

It was a pleasure meeting you.

I'll defer this question to my colleague, Tom Yoksas, who's actually running an 
LDM in the cloud.

> 2.       If the RAMADDA is installed on the server, do I need to install

Yes.

> 3.       What is the relationship between LDM and THREDDS?

The LDM is a mechanism for obtaining data products. It has the ability to file 
data-products and/or pipe them to a program. Other than that, it really doesn't 
know or care about the data-products.

THREDDS is a mechanism for indexing and serving data-products. It can be used 
with the LDM.
