Users eye computer grids as potential servers for mainstream apps - Computerworld

But Robert Ortega, Wachovia's vice president of architecting and engineering, said he believes grid computing may be ready for broader use. "We have started thinking of the grid as a virtual application server," said Ortega, who outlined his work with the technology during a presentation at the conference.

Wachovia is testing a new version of New York-based DataSynapse Inc.'s GridServer software, which would allow Ortega to move application servers based on technology such as J2EE or .Net to the grid. "We're looking at this thing as a platform for running the services that make up an SOA," he said, referring to a service-oriented architecture.
