Grid and related concepts - enable the next generation IT infrastructure
Data in any format, at any location, accessed and integrated while
masking complexity
Business & IT processes automated and adjusted
based on policy
Applications/Services abstracted from the underlying
IT infrastructure.
Resources shared and aggregated to support dynamic workloads.

Grids and Next Generation IT Infrastructure
Shared
• Break the static links between applications, data and the underlying infrastructure
• Manage resources and relationships based on workload, automated processes, and policies
• Move toward enterprise-wide shared services that support multiple lines-of-business & partners
