Simple
Powerful Grid
MyGrid is an Open Source grid
and grid middleware. MyGrid is
designed with the modern concepts in mind, simple naming and
transparent class hierarchy. MyGrid can distribute jobs to other grids,
including comercial, such as DataSynapse, or
Globus via gateway plugins. MyGrid wants to become to
grid computing what MySQL became for proprietary SQL databases: a
viable open source alternative.

solving complex job dependencies, job discriminators, load balancing,
fault tolerance, failover, recovery, industry standard logging.
