Grids Mean Business 1: Setting the scene
(90 mins)
Dave Pearson, Oracle
View Participants
We begin the Grids Mean Business Track by putting Grid in the context of other developments in modern computing infrastructure, including virtualisation, service-oriented architecture, web services and next-generation networks.
The industry track will take a catholic view of Grid, overlapping and incorporating many of these technologies – our emphasis is on solving business problems and meeting business needs, rather than a purist definition of competing technologies.
By a combination of presentations and case studies, this session will outline where Grid can be applied – in the data centre, as utility computing, in specialised services (design, drug discovery …) and in collaborative projects.
Agenda:
