[ogsa-wg] Future of OGSA, Web Services in Hands of IT Community

[Hiro Kishimoto]

Mark Linesch's article in GRIDtoday.

Grid computing is increasingly being viewed as a critical component of 
the next phase of distributed computing. The key to realizing the 
benefits of Grid computing is standardization, so that the diverse 
resources that make up a modern distributed environment can be 
discovered, accessed, allocated, monitored and, in general, managed as a 
single virtual system -- even when provided by different vendors and/or 
operated by different organizations.

Standardization of Grid computing is being led by the Global Grid Forum 
(GGF). GGF has developed the Open Grid Services Architecture (OGSA) and 
is working throughout the international community to champion this 
"architectural blueprint" and the associated specifications that will 
enable the pervasive adoption of Grid computing for business and 
research worldwide.
