Aligning IT in Real Time With the Speed of Changing Business Demands: Using a Grid Platform to Orchestrate Your Enterprise IT Resources

Overview Nowadays, grid computing is helping individual High Performance Computing (HPC) applications improve agility and lower costs through the virtualization of IT resources such as processors, memory, storage and network. While these grid silos offer individual instances of ROI and business value, enterprise-wide improvements remain elusive. What is needed is the ability to extend the success of HPC grid computing into Enterprise IT by deploying an Enterprise Grid, thus delivering on the promise of a complete Virtualized Data Center through the orchestration of diverse information technology assets in real time. Platform Enterprise Grid Orchestrator (EGO) accomplishes all of this and much more.
