It is a time of change; a growing time. This is an exciting time for the HPC, cluster computing, and Grid market. Adoption in the traditional vertical markets is maturing and entrenched. Cluster and Grid technologies are now "must-haves" for industries such as Electronics, Manufacturing, Life Sciences, Government/Research/Education, and Oil & Gas. Financial Services are experiencing rapid adoption of Grid in investment banking. Tremendous business value is being derived from cluster and Grid technologies. The horizontal business computing market is starting to link Grid with virtualization and SOA to transform the whole data center architecture from Client/Server silos.

Grid From the Bottom-Up
"This bottom-up approach, coupled with the top-down approach of large companies deploying enterprise grids and large clusters, could potentially bring distributed, or at least parallel, computing capabilities to the majority of enterprises, both large and small."



Data's Destiny
"Banks are making headway in their deployment of grid computing. But, unlike their counterparts in other industries, financial institutions' grids need to be capable of handling a huge amount of constantly changing data. How are they coping with this challenge?"
