Building Scalable, High Performance Cluster and Grid Networks: The Role of Ethernet
Overview A Grid computer is a hardware and software system that integrates a collection of distributed system components (e.g., computer systems, storage, etc.) making them appear to the user as a single, large "virtualized" computing system. The basic "single system" concept may be applied to the construction of centralized "cluster" computers (multiprocessor systems consisting of colocated computers and storage) or a networked grid of geographically dispersed computers, instrumentation, or other resources. Because it is evolving as a very flexible, perhaps even all-encompassing, distributed system technology, Grid computing offers a number of potential uses and benefits.
