Oracle has announced 10 will be 10g for grid. Many of us have been
It's kind of like the SETI project... for those of you that don't know
what this is, it's a project where NASA has images that need to be
analyzed, but don't have the computing power to do it all in a
reasonable time. So they created a system where they distribute the
processing of the images
Nope, sorry. This is a fundamental misconception that many people
share. :)
SETI is a completely different kettle of fish to Oracle's grid story,
using spare cycles on desktops to try and achieve something as part of
the search for extra-terrestrial intelligence (IIRC that's what SETI
stands
no not over the atlantic. its from DC to Boston.

10GB over Atlantic?
This does cost a lot. At least I assume so, why the heck am I sticking to
512kb in my home
Hi!
It's still quite hard to believe, that it could be anywhere near cheap. Even
building 10Gbit locatl Ethernet is currently expensive. You would need
16*655Mb ATM connections for that to do over long range...

atm is obsolete. cheap is relative. i didnt mean its $20/month or comparable to
getting AOL. alot of mid-large businesses have them.

2.3 GB from California to Switzerland is fast, damned fast.

Commoditizing of IT resources, hardware, software, people requires reducing
the level of maintenance and knowledge required. A grid does just that.
The concept of a grid is to still function with the loss of one or more
members and can incorporate new resources easily.

i havent seen much about internet 2. i didnt realize there was anything in
production yet. do you know where i can find more info on it?
2.3 GBs isnt really that much for a connect anymore. its not that expensive
to get 10GB connections or more.

Although I haven't got into the technical details of 'The Grid' (and thanks
for this article - I shall read it), but nevertheless I have a haunting
sense of deja vu. Remember all the hype over distributed computing that
Oracle generated? Remember the key part client-server was of that? Remember
Remember the 'single instance' ?
