As the world’s largest open public grid computing platform, the Global Grid Exchange aggregates the unused capacity of Internet-connected computers – from PCs to mainframes all around the world – and delivers it safely and securely to the desktops of those who need access to massive computational resources.

The Global Grid Exchange is designed to make supercomputing power available on your desktop, at a price far below that which is required to buy or build traditional supercomputing resources. By harnessing the unused power of thousands of computers connected via a global network - from desktop machines to mainframes - users can buy supercomputing power by the slice, making large-scale, massively parallel processing capability easily available to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
