What are the benefits of using the Sun Grid Engine software?
Compute resources in a typical data center have utilization rates that are on average 10%-25%. By installing and using the Sun Grid Engine software, it is possible to achieve resource utilization upwards of 80%, 90% or even 95%. This increase in utilization comes from the intelligent distribution of workload to the most appropriate available resources. Additional features like advance reservation and resource quota sets give users and administrators the ability to make the most of their compute resources.
