EGEE, Europe’s largest grid for a wide range of applications, is working with industry to help new businesses and old to capitalize on the open source grid technologies already developed.

Stephanie Parker, who chairs EGEE’s Industry Forum, says grids have a lot to offer. “The biggest selling point is that grids can save you money: companies can access more computing power without shelling out for new hardware. Grid delivers major value by improving business performance, by helping to get products to market faster, and by enabling companies to do new things.”

Check out this great article illustrating the benefits of grid technology. Many organizations have found that grid can be a real enabler to their business, whether you’re talking in terms of allocation resources dynamically between an application or activity, or through improved performance. In a pricing solution for example, the ability to price more accurately or more quickly than your competitor could be the difference between you making that deal and loosing it.
