Oracle Buys In-Memory Data Grid Leader Tangosol
Should Microsoft buy Digipede? After spending a while with my company Decatec distributing the .NET grid computing software, I believe that would be a fantastic fit, bringing huge benefits to customers being able to run all sorts of software on a grid made up of tens or gundreds of servers or PCs, Digipede could become a new .NET/WinFX/Longhorn pillar (perhaps with the name WGF- Windows Grid Foundation).
Then imagine how WF, Exchange or Dynamics could scale out their middle tier in a SaaSy way, virtually without limits.
