Garuda Grid
GARUDA (Global Access to Resource Using Distributed Architecture) is India's Grid Computing initiative.
The GARUDA High-Speed network is a Layer 2/3 MPLS Virtual Private Network (VPN) connecting select 45
institutions across 17 cities at 10/100 Mbit/s with Stringent Service Level Agreements with the service
provider. This Grid is a precursor to the Gigabit speed nationwide Wide Area Network (WAN) connecting
high performance computing resources and scientific instruments for seamless collaborative research
and experiments. The High Speed Network is being established at all the Garuda partner institutes in
close collaboration with ERNET who is also responsible for the operation, maintenance and
management of this network
GARUDA is a collaboration of science researchers
and experimenters on a nationwide grid of
computational nodes, mass storage and scientific
instruments that aims to provide the technological
advances required to enable data and compute
intensive science for the 21st century.
