I keep hearing from associates about grid computing which, from what I can gather, is highly distributed stuff along the lines of SETI@Home.
Is anyone working on these sort of systems for business use? My interest is in figuring out if there’s a commercial reason for starting software development in this field.
Grid computing is really only needed if you have a lot of WORK that needs to be done, like folding proteins, otherwise a simple server farm will likely be plenty.
