Seele Grid Server (SG1) uses advanced middleware to coordinate disparate IT resources across a
network,
allowing them to function as a virtual whole. SG1 uses multiple service layers to communicate, monitor, and control compute resources within the grid
network. |
|
|
SG1 also addresses the need for aggregating server processing power.
Most computers in an
organization sit idle much of the time. A grid can provide significant
processing power for users
by distributing application workload over multiple machines. |

Seele Grid Server provides the following layered services around a grid framework: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Web-based management console that gives users control of their grid system from any location using a standard browser. Users can drill down directly from the HTML interface to get a complete view of grid performance at every level. |
|
|
| |
|
|
Through secure protocols and access control lists (ACLs), the entire grid is protected from unauthorized usage.
Personnel are allowed access to specific aspects and responsibilities of the compute grid based
on their role in the organization. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
Provides secure authentication and communication over a grid network. In addition, it supports security across organizational boundaries for users of the grid. It is based on public key encryption
and secure sockets layer (SSL), with extensions for grid-specific applications. |

This module helps to manage the creation and modification of job
descriptions and to submit a job for execution. When a job has been submitted for execution, it creates an instance of the job known
as a "task run". |
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
Implementation module to give grid administrators the ability to deploy individual grid nodes onto host machines. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
A parallel processing architecture in which CPU resources are shared across a network. The grid
framework allows unused CPU capacity in all participating machines to be allocated to one application. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Computer systems manufactured by multiple vendors incorporating components based on open standards. These systems are referred to as "commodity servers" since the standardization process promotes lower costs and less differentiation among vendor's products. |
