Oracle Grid Computing: An Oracle Business White Paper

Overview The speed and unpredictability of business cycles have pushed many enterprises to the limit of manageability. Organizations need to become more adaptable but often their information systems are slow to respond. At the same time, these enterprises want to gain greater efficiency from their IT systems and lower the cost of computing. Grid computing is a new IT architecture that adapts to your changing business needs. Even better, grid computing revolutionizes IT economics. With enterprise grid computing you can build a powerful data center with a variable cost structure that can be adjusted as needed.
