Report Excerpt
|
|
Fueled by nearly several hundred million dollars of government funding in the US alone since the mid-1990’s, there about 20-30 substantial academic/research grids in development or production around the world. Today, there is more significant focus than ever before on the commercialization of grid technologies for the enterprise. Grid technologies have become more viable to enterprises over the last few years as a result of changes in the marketplace including:
• broadband networks;
• ubiquitous availability of the Internet;
• increased experience with collaborative modes of working;
• continuous drive toward open standards and implementation of these standards; and
• recognition of the enormous innovation and productivity possible with infrastructures built on open standards.
