Is Oracle Grid Computing a product or concept

I have read some of the threads and I have a basic question.
Does oracle have a comprehensive infrastructure grid product that actually takes servers, storage, network, and provide a provisioning system that one can install a operating environment and software products etc. If it does not have such a product then what is the deal about "oracle grid compute"
I have gone through the OEM 10gR2 install guide, I'm not too sure this mentions about grid computing. ASM comes close as far as storage is concerned, but what about CPU,RAM, Network and OS.
I also got that part that oracle products are ready for the grid - which product is not ready in that sense. The Grid should enable any Op Env and consequently any product - unless ofcourse they (OS) are still under test.

When someone talks about grid computing, I think of a system where I can seemlessly bring systems in and out of use at will to support the requirements at that time. So if I have 10 servers, in the morning I might want to run 6 app server nodes and 4 database nodes, whilst at night I might want to run 2 app server nodes and 8 database servers. The same kit serving different functions to meet the business demands.
Oracle does not provide this type of functionality. It allows you to add and remove nodes from a cluster (database and app server), but the seemless mix and match approach is not possible in a real environment.
The Grid Control allows you to monitor and manage your whole infrastructure, but this doesn't really warrant the "Grid" tag in my opinion. It is only an evolution of the OEM Management Server available in previous releases, and that was never given the "Grid" title.
I guess everyones definition of grid computing is slightly different. Oracle doesn't meet my definiton, but it may surpass the definition used by others.
Marketing aside, the 10g Database is a erally cool bit of kit :)

Is oracle 10g really oriented for grid computing?

Hello all,
Microsoft's article "http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/compare/oracle/mythandreality.mspx" reads as follows:
"Oracle's purported Grid enablement in 10g is based on its Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) technology that is no more than a local cluster. RAC is a local cluster of computers with no geographic distribution capabilities. This marketing campaign relabeled existing features to exploit current industry trends. "
is microsoft article right? why o why not is oracle grid is a local cluster instead of grid computing oriented?
Thanks in advance.
Hernán.

The distance limitations are not due to the RAC product itself but rather network technology limitations.. Unable to deliver data between sites at a very high speed.
I think Oracle is the only product available in the market today that can provide a close to Grid solution. Its also important to note that Grid computing in general is not ready because there are no set standards for heterogeneous systems to communicate with each other.. for example we cannot have Windows and Linux as a clustered configuration. While these limitations do affect the overall Grid strategy, there is definitely a grid within the Oracle paradigm. meaning an Oracle Grid does exist.

Grid computing in oracle 10g

Hello Everybody :) I want to make an application which will be added to grid computation (it will be inverting a matrix with dimension 1000x1000 in loop with lenght of 999999 ).
I have got few questions.
1 How to make grid?? I' ve used Oracle 10gXE for making an application and I know it quite well, but I can't find anything obout making a grid (how to do it). Do I have to install Oracle Application Server 10g or oracle Enterprise MAnager 10g? If I have to, how to do grid (do I have to make clustres or does the grid will be made automatically when I give IP adresses for the server)? I have got 3 computers in LAN network, 1 of them has got Oracle 10gXE.
2 the application inverting the matrix is written ic C++. How to add this application to grid computing using SQL (I want to see the result of computing in C++ application)?
Do I have to use something like ODBC in C++?
3 If points 1 & 2 have got solutions for me (I hope so) is there any chance for remote control for grid computing (I want to control grid computing from applicayion i C++)?
Thank You very much for all answers
Marcin Migdal from Poland
here is my e-mail [email protected]

OK I have also read that if I want to make grid computing I need following things.
1 Oracle databade 10g which provides computing
(Express Edition is a standalone databse such as Access but it has multithread and is used standard applications such us sample application in XE (shop,forums etc.) )
2 Oracle Application server but I don't know if I need it couse it can be useless if I've got database
3 Oracle Enterprise manager 10g Grid Control

Oracle Database 10g Express Edition support Grid Computing ?

Hi
May I know if I install the Oracle Database Express Edition on Linux, which Linux O/S
that can support Grid Computing ?
And if I install this database on Windows, which Windows platform that support Grid Computing ?
Thanks.
Vivi

Hi.
What do you mean by support Grid?
I'm assuming you are actually asking about support for RAC. If so, then:
- Oracle XE does not support RAC.
- There are a number of Linux distributions that are supported for RAC, including Red Hat Advanced Server and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Basically, if it is free, Oracle don't support it. That's not to say it doesn't work, but it's not supported.
- I guess the only sensible Windows choice is Windows 2003. It would work in Windows 2000 or XP, but these aren't sensible options as both are very old and one is a desktop OS.
These answers also apply to the Grid Control.

Grid Computing: Oracle Profile

I am a student at Lansing Community College. Recently profiled in the September/ October Edition of Oracle Magazine I subscribe to. I currently use JDeveloper for Java and Web Development. I am writing a term paper on Grid Computing and its impact on Enterprise IT. Oracle, being at the front of the Development and Implementation of Grid, I have chosen them to profile. I have found alot of information online, however I would like to set up an interview, face to face. I know that there is a regional office in Troy, Michigan. I am willing to make the trip if someone was willing to spare 30 minutes of their time that is knowledgeable in Grid technology. If anyone can help, or has advice, please let me know at [email protected] Thank you in advance.

OTN has a whitepaper on "Workload Management with Oracle Real Application Clusters". I suggest you read that, as it's likely to be a fuller explanation than we can give you here. Find out more.
Of course, if you still have questions after you've read that paper feel free to post them.

What is the difference between Grid computing and Cluster ?

Heh Friends
What is the difference between Grid computing and Cluster ?
/sumit

You
can't easily switch a server from being a database
server into an application server when the load on
your system changes.
That's only because you didn't architect your grid that way. :P
(Mine doesn't do that either)
>
I guess people use the bits of the definitions that
support their marketing claims :)
Isn't that the truth!
Oracle marketing speaks of grid as a concept with their technologies enabling the grid. Other companys offer products that turn computers into (their defintion of) a grid - Sun's Grid Engine, Avaki's Grid, and Platform's LSF come to mind.
Gotta love the marketing folks; especially at Oracle. It seems to me that when a product doesn't succeed, they tend to rebrand and reintroduce.

Please help on grid computing

hi aslamo alaikum
every body

grid computing environment on two servers
please can you tell me what steps i take to implement this
what software i need and how can i configure a grid computing environment
this should be very help full for me
thanks in advance
allah hafiz

hi Chris Antognini
aslam o alaikum
thanks for your intrest to guide me
sir baesically my problum is that i am a student of computer science
and now i receive a project to implement or configure grid computing environment or whatever you say it beasically i have no prior knowledge of grid computing or which oracle products are used to form it i already work in 9i database and developer 6i
now i want to configure grid environment on two p4 computers and then run an application in 6i developer as frontend
beasically the two computers are my oracle server on only one database run and i want to joint these two computers with netwoek by network cards
i think you understant my problum
i want to know that what steps i need to create or implement the grid tirm
remember only one database run on two computers and they serve all incomming treffic jointly
thanks and regards

What are the Oracle Grid's differences or strengths against other vendors

Hi,
I'd like to know what Oracle 10g system is different from others.
There are many concepts for Grid computing,
but isn't still standardized form for it.
So many vendors are imprementing their own Grid system.
Can anyone point out about what are the Oracle Grid's differences or strengths against other vendors (IBM, Microsoft, Sun etc)
Thank you.

Hi
I'm very skeptical about what Oracle calls grid computing. Few years ago I wrote a paper entitled "Is Oracle Database Moving Toward Grid Computing?" (http://www.trivadis.com/Images/grid_computing_en_tcm17-11759.pdf) handling that topic. Honestly, even two releases later (10.2 and 11.1) things has not really changed.

RAC and Grid Computing

Hi,
I am trying to understand the connection between RAC and Grid Computing.
In RAC, we can have multiple instance of the same physical database and if all these instances are running on n* separate machines then we have n+ set of processes to take care of computation.
Isn't this summarise the Grid computing as well or is it something entirely different. Please share.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
Billy already answered well.
Litte Note:
Timeline of Oracle Databases:
1992: Oracle version 7 appeared with support for referential integrity, stored procedures and triggers.
1997: Oracle Corporation released version 8, which supported object-oriented development and multimedia applications.
1999: The release of Oracle8i aimed to provide a database inter-operating better with the Internet (the i in the name stands for "Internet"). The Oracle8i database incorporated a native Java virtual machine (Oracle JVM, aka "Aurora").
2001: Oracle9i went into release with 400 new features, including the ability to read and write XML documents. 9i also provided an option for Oracle RAC, or "Real Application Clusters", a computer-cluster database, as a replacement for the Oracle Parallel Server (OPS) option.
2003: Oracle Corporation released Oracle Database 10g, which supported regular expressions. (The g stands for "grid"; emphasizing a marketing thrust of presenting 10g as "grid computing ready".)
2005: Oracle Database 10.2.0.1—aka Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10gR2)—appeared.
2007: Oracle Corporation released Oracle Database 11g for Linux and for Microsoft Windows.
Future (*Just a guess*): Oracle Database will release version 12c. (The c stands for "cloud"; emphasizing a marketing thrust of presenting 12c as "Cloud Computing ready".)
Oracle has released products with "C" of the "Cloud" (e.g Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c)

What is Grid computing

Hi i am very new to the oracle.could anybody please clearly explain me what is grid computing and how it will be use in IT system.

There are four mentions of grid computing in the Oracle Concepts manual including the following definition:
The grid style of computing treats collections of similar IT resources holistically as a single pool, while exploiting the distinct nature of individual resources within the poolhttp://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/intro.htm#sthref14
Basically you can build a 'grid' computing environment by designing your application in pieces that sit on several different servers. You can do this using distributed databases, replication, or RAC alone or in combination of the other features.
Oracle's approach centers on using RAC.

RAC && Grid Computing

HI
I'm a new in Oracle Databse Administration,
I want to know what are the difference between RAC && Grid Computing and how can I implement it.
if there is a book , documentation or link in easy way to understand it
THANKS IN ADVANCE
Excalibure

Khurram,
Lets look at the following
Oracle Parallel Server was available on VMS back in 1989 on version 6. And it actually WORKED (what can't be said of RAC)
Gradually it became available on more systems.
It was re-architected to break the limit of 2 servers, and renamed RAC. However, on VMS it was still called OPS.
As with everything, RAC in 9i was far from mature. One could argue it is still not mature.
10g enters the stage. RAC was revamped, and was renamed Oracle Grid.
The same thing happened to sqlnet (v6) -->sqlnet2 (v7)--> Net8 (Oracle 8.0) ---> Net (revising version numbers, 8i and higher)
The same thing happened to Standby database --> Dataguard ... etc, etc.
In other words: The functionality didn't change at all, only the product was renamed.
Hence: RAC and Grid are marketingconcepts. And they still don't work robustly. Corrupt OCRs are more rule than exception over here.
