  1. Grid – Path to Pervasive Adoption Mark Linesch Chairman, Global Grid Forum Hewlett Packard Corporation

  2. Old World New World Dynamic Shared Virtual Automated Service Static Silo Physical Manual Application Industry is on a journey

  3. Process Process People People Technology Policy Journey must comprehend a challenging set of issues

  4. Users Providers Policy Makers Architects & Builders … while nurturing a vibrant ecosystem of value eScience eBusiness

  5. Time to mainstream 1–2 years 5–10 years Visibility Peakof inflated expectations Technology trigger Trough of disillusionment Slope of enlightenment Plateau of productivity Maturity Source: Gartner … and managing expectations along the way

  6. Grid & Related Paradigms • Distributed Computing • Loosely coupled • Heterogeneous • Cluster • Tightly coupled • Homogeneous • Grid Computing • Enabled by distributed computing • Heterogeneous and cross-organizational • Utility Computing • Enabled by grid and distributed computing technology • Public or private computing “services”

  7. High-performance computing Collaborative design E-Business High-energy physics Financial modeling Life sciences Data center automation E-Science Collaborative data-sharing Drug discovery How Are Grids Used?

  8. Grids with the associated technologies (virtualization, automation, service orientation) are about transforming how science, business and IT is done

  9. Example – Transforming Health Care Taiwan Asthma Grid • Improved patient care • Lower public health care costs • More effective drugs and treatment protocols Patient profile & history Treatment protocols and prescriptions Environment Weather

  10. Grid Solution Stack Applications Standards APIs Applications Middleware Standards Grid & Web Services “Heart” Software that enables dynamic sharing and management of distributed resources “Soul” Standards that enable software interoperability Resources Standards Internet & Industry Standards Storage Compute Network The “heart” and “soul” of a grid solution

  11. Job-Submit Service Registry Service Grid middleware services Advertise Brokering Service Notify CPU Resource ComputeService DataService ApplicationService Printer Service Virtualized resources Key Requirements for Grid Middleware Secureauthorization, role and access privileges Execute and manage jobs/services Dataaccess, transfer and management Resourcediscovery, monitoring & control Information about applications & resources

  12. DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING GRID COMPUTING UTILITY COMPUTING Applications Applications Grid Services GGF Services Web Services W3C OASIS IETF SNIA DMTF Resources Resources Standardization Requires collaboration across the broader distributed computing industry • Requirements • An open, service-oriented architecture (SOA) • Built on a Web services infrastructure • Resource virtualization at the core

  13. Pervasive Adoption “breaking through non-standard barriers” Scientific/ Technical Grids We are somewhere around here Commercial/ Enterprise Grids Early Deployments Momentum Building (Proven Solutions) Broad Adoption Adoption will progress in stages

  14. Products & Solutions Reference Designs Reference Designs Architectures & Specifications Use Cases & Best Practices The path to pervasive adoption

  15. Pervasive Adoption Grid & Distributed Computing Communities EGA and GGF Accelerating grid adoption • Standards • Community • Collaboration Thank you!
