GRID COMPUTING SYSTEM ALONGSIDE A DISTRIBUTED DATABASE ARCHITECTURE

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for a grid computing system that performs analytical calculations on data stored in a distributed database system. A grid enabled software component at a control node is configured to invoke database management software (DBMS) at the control node to cause the DBMS at a plurality of the worker nodes to make available data to the grid enabled software component local to its node; instruct the grid enabled software components at the plurality of worker nodes to perform an analytical calculation on the received data and to send the results of the data analysis to the grid enabled software component at the control node; and assemble the results of the data analysis performed by the grid enabled software components at the plurality of worker nodes.
