Grid Computing / Sun Ray Solution Helps Bournemouth University to Reduce Costs and Increase Performance

Overview Bournemouth University's School of Design, Engineering & Computing undertook a major project to refresh the computing infrastructure within its UNIX-based teaching environment, in order to reduce running costs and improve the overall learning experience for students by increasing the performance and availability of the resources in each lab. However, when the School identified a need for increased performance it also took the opportunity to investigate whether an alternative systems architecture would offer benefits. After detailed discussions with Distributor Systems International (DSI) regarding the various technology options, the School decided to install a Grid Computing solution using Sun's powerful Sun Fire V210 servers to provide the processing resources required to run a wide range of electronic design, computing and software engineering management courses.
