Alchemi is an open source software
framework that allows you to painlessly aggregate the computing power of
networked machines into a virtual supercomputer (computational grid) and to develop applications to run on
the grid.
It has been designed with the
primary goal of being easy to use without sacrificing power and flexibility.
Alchemi includes:
- The runtime
machinery (Windows executables) to construct computational grids.
- A .NET API and
tools to develop .NET grid applications and grid-enable legacy
applications.
Features
- Simple
installation via Windows installers.
- Machines can
be on a LAN or the Internet.
- Machines can
be behind firewalls and NAT servers.
- Only idle
CPU time of machines on the grid is used; user programs are not impacted.
- Object-oriented
"grid thread" programming model for grid application development.
- File-based
"grid job" model for grid-enabling legacy applications.
- Web services
interface for interoperability with other grid middleware.
- VS.NET
design-time support (reusable WinForms components).
