    Grid computing involves connecting distributed computer resources to achieve a common goal, whereas cluster computing connects local computer resources in a network. The key difference is that grid computing allows connection of resources across locations. Benefits of grid and cluster models include reliability, efficiency, scalability, and speed, while disadvantages are high maintenance costs, lack of interactivity, vulnerability, and complexity.

    Grid and Cluster computing

    BY ANSHITA SHANDILYA

    WHAT IS GRID COMPUTING??


    IT is collection of information and resources from multiple locations and reach a common goal.

    It differs from cluster computing as it is loosely coupled.

    What is cluster computing??


    The technique of linking more than one computer in a particular network is called as cluster computing. The basic difference between cluster and grid computing is that in cluster computing the computers are connected locally while in grid the computers dont have to be in same location.

    Types of Grid
    Computational grid Data grid Manuscript grid Modular grid Collborative grid

    Advantages
    Reliable Efficient and scalable Controls traffic overload High speed Less time consumption

    DISADVANTAGES
    High cost of maintainence Non interactive Vulnerable to interference Complex
