Description
The Workshop has the dual purpose of evaluating the current adoption status of gLite in a business context, analysing its strengths and weaknesses and identifying future potential in a commercial setting and business oriented standards, as well as deliberating the recommendations from the 6th EC Concertation Meeting (Distributed computing Track) on industry perspectives in current & future e-infrastructures, thus building on discussions initiated during the EGEE'08 Business Track.
Expected Workshop Outputs: a gLite SWOT analysis, along with a Rapporteur of the main points raised and examples of current and potential future adoption in diverse commercial sectors serving as the basis for the EGEE Commercial Exploitation Plan.

QosCosGrid is a research project providing Grid solutions for parallel and complex-systems workload. At EGEE-08 Istanbul, we have been presenting a concept how QosCosGrid capabilities can be used to enhance gLite / EGEE capabilities and reachout by adding new types of user groups and workload types.
That’s great but not enough to work with industry and commerce! Observing the markets...
