    compare between cloud computing and grid computing.

    What is the deference between cloud computing and grid computing. If any one can having idea so reply me soon.

    cloud computing is where users can store their data onto a network with secured way and they access it anywhere it is provide by many top companies in it.

    Grid computing is where computer resources from multiple administrative domains to reach a common goal

    I suppose that cloud computing and grid computing are scalable.

    You know, scalability is accomplished through load balancing of application instances running separately on a variety of operating systems and connected through Web services.

    CPU and network bandwidth is allocated and de-allocated on demand.

    Cloud Computing is where 100% is supposed. But, like the amazon web services fiasco showed nothing is 100% uptime. To get closer to that ideal it might be best to employ a systems engineer to setup a cluster across multiple cloud providers...

    computing and grid computing.?

    Please elaborate them in simple words with some good examples, as i am newbie to these technical jargon's. i am basically from biological background.

    Grid computing is where more than one computer coordinates to solve a problem together. Often used for problems involving a lot of number crunching, which can be easily parallelisable.

    Cloud computing is where an application doesn't access resources it requires directly, rather it accesses them through something like a service. So instead of talking to a specific hard drive for storage, and a specific CPU for computation, etc. it talks to some service that provides these resources. The service then maps any requests for resources to its physical resources, in order to provide for the application. Usually the service has access to a large amount of physical resources, and can dynamically allocate them as they are needed.

    In this way, if an application requires only a small amount of some resource, say computation, then the service only allocates a small amount, say on a single physical CPU (that may be shared with some other application using the service). If the application requires a large amount of some resource, then the service allocates that large amount, say a grid of CPUs. The application is relatively oblivious to this, and all the complex handling and coordination is performed by the service, not the application. In this way the application can scale well.

    For example a web site written "on the cloud" may share a server with many other web sites while it has a low amount of traffic, but may be moved to its own dedicated server, or grid of servers, if it ever has massive amounts of traffic. This is all handled by the cloud service, so the application shouldn't have to be modified drastically to cope.

    A cloud would usually use a grid. A grid is not necessarily a cloud or part of a cloud.

    To get cloud computing to work, you need three things, viz. - thin clients or terminals, grid computing, and utility computing. Grid computing links disparate computers to form one large infrastructure, harnessing unused resources. Utility computing is paying for what you use on shared servers like you pay for a public utility (such as electricity, gas, and so on). With grid computing, you can provision computing resources as a utility that can be turned on or off. Cloud computing goes one step further with on-demand resource provisioning. This eliminates over-provisioning when used with utility pricing. It also removes the need to over-provision in order to meet the demands of millions of users.

    i have never heard before grid computing....

    this is such a great information & as i read that i think could is better than grid computing...

    finally it's depend on the purpose of using.. how & where it's been beneficial...


    Thanks for sharing...

    Grid computing is the one in which more than one computer co-ordinates to solve a problem together.
    Cloud computing is the use of computing resources which are delivered as a service on internet.

    Cloud computing
    provides us server clustering i.e. the resources are spread across more than one web server, and are rendered as per need.It also allows us to manage peak loads easily, without facing any bandwidth issues.
    Grid computing is the one in which more than one computer co-ordinates to solve a problem together.Grids are a form of distributed computing whereby a “super virtual computer” is composed of many networked loosely coupled computers acting together to perform large tasks.

    Cloud and cloud managed services are designed in such a manner so that businesses get rid of the hardware and software mess, which kills their quality time as well as money. As grid computing works on the fundamental principle of shared environment of computer systems from multiple administrative domains, it gives rise to certain advantages in terms of boosting daily operations of a business enterprise.
