Thinking about the Cloud and HPC

Taking a bit of time away from the RIA world, I’ve been thinking about the cloud (Vibro.NET’s Cloud Computing and Identity posting is worth a read) and HPC. The renewed interest in HPC is drive from a recent Platform presentation. Having spent an amount of time with various grid products over the last few years, I think its fairly safe to say that DataSynapse doesn’t appear to have anything resembling EGO. At the moment my brain is ticking over on “single grid environment” and “business policies”.

Off topic: More of an FYI to myself, DataSynapse 4.2 offered Dependencies that allowed workflows to be submitted to brokers. Remember to check deleteInvocationData for services that remain open forever.
