Your questions answered

What is grid computing?

Grid computing is a distributed computing model that enables the efficient sharing and use of computing resources distributed across a network, in order to solve complex problems using a set of interconnected machines.

Why choose dedicated servers for grid computing?

Dedicated servers are an attractive option for grid computing because of their performance, control, customisation, security, isolation and scalability. They provide a solid solution for large-scale distributed computing applications.

Which business sectors are best served by grid computing?

Grid computing is widely used in scientific research, such as complex simulations, modelling, massive data analysis, calculations (physics, chemistry, biology and astrophysics), genomic sequencing and biological data analysis, etc. It is also used by financial institutions to perform real-time calculations, such as risk modelling, portfolio analysis and financial forecasting. Weather and climate models also require large calculations for short- and long-term forecasts, making grid computing essential.

Why choose OVHcloud for my grid computing project?

We have designed our Scale Grid Computing solutions for this specific use. Our servers are sized to handle the most demanding workloads for your complex analyses. In addition, our water-cooling technology and global network infrastructure offer you optimal performance.
