Some thoughts...
Do you anticipate needing to run anything in parallel? If so, MPI / PVM might be worth investigating. If not, things can be simpler.
If all you need to do is divide up large jobs into small pieces, send them off to other systems (i.e. cluster or grid nodes) to run, then collect the results. This could result in a system with sections to:
A commercial product called LSF (www.platform.com) does much of this and works well with cluster applications. With it, one may create queues for specific systems or sets of systems, submit jobs, and monitor them. For grid versus cluster applications, all this gets more fuzzy. Are the grid systems shared? How reliable are they? How much redundancy is needed? Like I said, these are some thoughts and questions. Hope it's useful. :) In reply to Re: Perl Grids
