Optimising the IT environment with grid computing
Overview In today’s real-time economy, organisations depend on the availability and performance of their key applications to stay competitive. The speed with which these applications can process data is critical – for delivering operational efficiency gains, improving customer service levels and reducing the time-to-market of new products and services. The solution, for many, has been to simply acquire new, seemingly low cost systems when additional processing capacity has been required. However, adding new systems has often led to greater inefficiencies across the IT estate, with silos of processing power emerging. It’s also created more potential points of weakness which now need to be effectively managed and supported to ensure optimum application performance – and as a result, rising total cost of ownership. In response, grid computing has emerged as a key solution – providing a way for organisations to fully leverage the processing power across their enterprise to seamlessly run resource-hungry applications. Grid computing pools the computing power of servers, including spare capacity and idle CPUs, to improve application performance and ensure a better return on your IT assets. So how can you realise the promise of grid computing today to deliver tangible benefits to your business?
