Description

GridwiseTech, the independent expert in Grid technology succeeded in connecting the first large industrial customer to the EGEE infrastructure. LHC Computing Grid Project (LCG) is said to be the first worldwide deployed Grid production system, so far mainly serving academy. However, with thousands of distributed assets interconnected with unconventional technology, it has great potential to become virtual hub for businesses, the role that Stanford had for what later become the Silicon Valley. GridwiseTech, recently awarded as top innovator for deploying scientific results in industry, helps companies to hook up to the EGEE infrastructure in the process of virtualizing their infrastructure. In this presentation, GridwiseTech's Tomasz Szepieniec will explain how we made the large European corporation use LCG-enabled resources for their engineering needs, potentially reducing the design cycles from months to hours. Our solution can easily serve other industrial customers, thus creating foundations for Europe-wide business grid.
