Analysts: Oracle's grid technology not all that

Analysts: Oracle's grid technology not all that: "'What Oracle talks about when they describe their 10g strategy and technology is mostly not grid and it just isn't appropriate,' Claunch said. 'I would describe it as a lower-cost, potentially more efficient way of developing and deploying applications using their clustering technology.'

George Demarest, senior director of Oracle database marketing, responded to critics by saying the company has been careful to inform customers that they don't 'automatically get grid if they buy 10g.' "

When is a grid not a grid?
