Synopsis
Like the Internet, Grid Computing it is expected to change the way organizations do business. This revolutionary computing system allows organizations to transparently integrate, streamline, and share dispersed pools of hosts, servers, storage systems, data, and networks in order to deliver agreed-upon service at specified levels of application efficiency and processing performance. This leading-edge resource is the first book to offer telecommunications and IT professionals a comprehensive view of Grid Computing from a networking perspective. Emphasizing communications apparatus, the book explores the practical advantages of Grid Computing and what is needed by an organization to migrate to this new computing paradigm.

From the Back Cover
Successfully migrate to a grid computing system
Grid computing is a virtual distributed computing environment in which an organization can transparently integrate, streamline, and share dispersed groups of hosts, servers, storage systems, data, and networks into one synergistic system. Long used to solve large-scale problems in science and engineering, grid computing is now beginning to offer significant efficiencies and savings to the commercial world, including financial services operations.
A Networking Approach to Grid Computing explores the practical advantages of grid computing and explains what is needed in order to migrate successfully to this new computing paradigm and exploit the business opportunities afforded by grid computing.
This book offers the knowledge and skills needed to architect and deploy a grid computing environment that contributes directly to key business goals, including:
- The benefits of grid computing and the status of the technology
- Standards supporting grid computing including OGSI and OGSA
- Deployment and management of computing grids
- The economics of grid systems
- Communication systems for local, national, and global grids
Familiarizing readers with the services, reference architectures, storage, and software necessary for successful implementation of a grid system, A Networking Approach to Grid Computing shows how to set up an organization's grid environment faster, easier, and at a lower cost than its competitors.
