Speaker:
Erik Severinghaus, IBM Corp.

Grid has evolved from a technology for early adopters to a reliable enabler that allows companies to better respond to dynamic market conditions. Implementations are as varied as the organizations that use them; some are large and complex, while others are small and simple. Many choose to start small, launching their grid within a single department and growing over time. As an organization realizes value from the grid solution and builds expertise, the function and sophistication can be expanded to the enterprise. Whether your primary need is to improve speed of computing, information exchange or both you need a place to start and a roadmap for next steps. This session will discuss how to get started quickly and expand intelligently and will include lessons learned from a multitude of commercial Grid implementations.
