Grid Computing

• A Grid Checklist:• …coordinates resources that are not

subject to centralized control• …using standard, open, general-purpose

protocols and interfaces• deliver nontrivial qualities of service• Source: Ian Foster “What is the Grid”

(2002)

Grid Computing

• Back to 2002/2003• Two REVOLUTIONS (?):

– Begin of the Multi-Core era– Grid Computing

Feb. 2003 issue May 2002 issue

The Hype Cycle - 2002

The Hype Cycle - 2003

The Hype Cycle - 2008

What happened to Grid Computing??

A Revolution?

• Revolution* (a drastic and far-reaching change in ways of thinking and behaving) "the industrial revolution was also a cultural revolution"

• Evolution* (a process in which something passes by degrees to a different stage) "the development of his ideas took many years"

• Storage (EBS)– $0.1/GB/month– $0.1/million I/O requests– S3: $0.15/GB/month

• US sites (Europe site is a little bit higher)

The Hurdles

Gartner: Seven Security Risks

• 1. Privileged user access. • 2. Regulatory compliance. • 3. Data location. • 4. Data segregation. • 5. Recovery. • 6. Investigative support. • 7. Long-term viability.

McKinsey's Cloud Computing Report Is Partly Cloudy

“Clouds already make sense for many small and medium-size businesses, but technical, operational and financial hurdles will need to be overcome before clouds will be used extensively by large public and private enterprises”

ERP on the Cloud

Web 2.0 on the Cloud

WebSphere on an AMI

A little bit of Physics

> Commutation Relation[Grids, Clouds] = Grids*Clouds-Clouds*Grids ≠ 0

We can build Grids of Clouds and we can build Clouds of Grids and the final outcome will be different….

…So Distributed Computing exhibits a Quantum behavior and not Classical ☺

Cloud Computing Demonstration

• Let us build NOWNOW a Webserver in 5 minutes!

• Demo on Amazon EC2 – Next few slides

AWS Console

ElasticFox Plug-In

Bingo…Here is the WebServer

SSH

CLI

Summary

• Cloud Computing is Here• Tremendous Economic Impact• Small Companies / Startups already

using it• Large Companies must assess this

new technology• Will be deployed Everywhere soon
