An Alternative for Very Large Databases That Saves Money and Development Time

Overview Northrop Grumman's customers often have very demanding mission requirements for databases, including 24/7 availability and extremely large capacity. Frequently, their needs are at the far edge of the technically possible (or beyond) when implemented with conventional rational databases. Northrop Grumman shows how to use a technology developed for high-performance scientific computing - the Linda coordination model - together with clusters of commodity processors and commercially available high-speed, low-latency networking for a very large database system.
