Abstract
Recent advances in networking, hardware and software provide a powerful ‘Grid’ infrastructure for computing, communication and collaboration. Sun’s grid software stack enables users to build grid environments in an evolutionary way, starting with Cluster Grids on a departmental level, to Enterprise Grids, and eventually to Global Grids as part of the Internet. In the presentation, we outline Sun’s grid computing strategy, describe the grid technology, and present some customer solutions.
