The 31st IPP Symposium
Managed Utility Computing
Aad van Moorsel, Hewlett-Packard Labs
The Internet allows increasingly complex distributed applications, making the task of an IT operator or administrator prohibitively difficult. We argue in this talk for the necessity of a clean, standardized, service-centric software architecture to make future Internet applications manageable. We refer to the proposed solution as 'managed utility computing,' since it enables utility computing while increasing its manageability. In particular, we propose a web-services-based 'grid' architecture, with a particular focus on manageability features.
