Grid Computing on the Azure Cloud Computing Platform, Part 3: Running a Grid Application
In Part 1 of this series we introduced a design pattern for grid computing on Azure, while in Part 2 we developed a grid application in C#. This time we'll run the application, first locally and then in the cloud. In order to do that, we'll need some help from a grid computing framework.

Introduction to Virtual Service Oriented Grids
This article discusses the combination of three ideas, virtualization, service-orientation, and grid computing into a single concept and computing platform concept, "virtual service-oriented grids." In addition to history and definitions, the article addresses an approach, with an example, to analyzing and implementing this technology.

The Emergence of Virtual Service Oriented Grids
This article introduces and discusses three technologies, virtualization, service orientation, and grid computing, and then shows how they are combining to create new design and deployment options - "Virtual Service Oriented Grids." The business case for using this emergent model is also discussed.

SOA Agents: Grid Computing meets SOA
Grid technology for improving scalability, high availability and throughput in SOA implementations. In this article, Boris Lublinsky explains how Grid computing can be used in the overall SOA architecture and introduces a programming model for Grid utilization in service implementation. He also introduces an experimental Grid implementation that can support this proposed architecture.

Java Grid, why do we need it!
In a stream of consciousness that starts from his humble beginnings in IT, John Daves makes plain the importance of IT in the financial sector, the forces driving banks to utilize grid technologies, how Grid plays with SOA, and why you need to be paying attention to this emerging but important technology.
