A Throughput-Intensive Compute and Storage Grid Using SAS Grid Manager
Overview The time has come when a $2,000,000 SMP UNIX server can be replaced by a $200,000 grid of even greater performance, reliability, and fault tolerance. This paper will discuss the considerations made in selecting the key grid components: grid node hardware, network infrastructure, and storage strategy. These must be optimized for the type of workload the grid will support. The paper takes a look at detailed performance metrics of the pilot grid, which executes single-threaded and massively parallel SAS workloads using SAS Grid Manager software on Linux.
