Cloud computing and Grid computing are the two words that end up confusing many people as they are similar in theory. We explain the differences.

David Pallmann shows how to perform grid computations on the Azure cloud computing platform. In Part 1 he presents a design pattern, while Part 2&3 will contain a concrete code example.

However, the vast amount of data needed to operate today’s grid requires the scale and speed of cloud computing to gather, analyze and derive the necessary insights for a more modern grid.

Because of the huge expense of computers in the 1960s and 1970s, mainframes and minicomputers were time-shared machines, and ...

By introducing private cloud management capabilities, armed with standard host repurposing tools, any types of grid deployments can go from being static to dynamic.

Amazon has announced a new cloud product aimed at bringing cloud-style scaling and flexibility to high-performance computing (HPC) applications. In short, the company has released a classic grid ...

You can call it cloud computing. You can call it grid computing. You can call it on-demand computing. Just don't call it the next big thing - at least not yet.
