Abstract

Enterprise applications implement business resource management systems, customer relationship management systems, and general systems for commerce. These applications rely on infrastructure that represents the vast majority of the world’s computing resources. Most of this infrastructure is lightly utilized and inflexible. This paper builds on the strength of Grid technologies for the scheduling and access control of resources with the goal of increasing the utilization and agility of enterprise resource infrastructures. Our use of these techniques is directed by our observation that enterprise applications have differing characteristics than those commonly found in scientific domains in which the Grid is widely used. These include: complex resource topology requirements, very long lifetimes, and time varying demand for resources. We take these differences into consideration in the design of a resource access management framework and a Grid-based protocol for accessing it. The resulting system is intended to support the new requirements of enterprise applications while continuing to be of value in the parallel job execution environment commonly found on today’s Grid.
