In today's dynamic business environment, IT departments are
under permanent pressure to meet two divergent requirements: to
reduce costs and to support business agility with higher
flexibility and responsiveness of the IT infrastructure. Grid and
Cloud Computing enable a new approach towards IT. They enable
increased scalability and more efficient use of IT based on
virtualization of heterogeneous and distributed IT resources. This
book provides a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of Grids
and Clouds and of how companies can benefit from them. A wide array
of topics is covered, e.g. business models and legal aspects. The
applicability of Grids and Clouds in companies is illustrated with
four cases of real business experiments. The experiments illustrate
the technical solutions and the organizational and IT governance
challenges that arise with the introduction of Grids and Clouds.
Practical guidelines on how to successfully introduce Grids and
Clouds in companies are provided.
