In last week's Advisor, I said that outside of academia, the life sciences, and financial services, practical grid business applications are mostly rare, and that the biggest reason for this is a lack of standards and best practices for implementation. I added that although these are now under development, I did not see companies stampeding to implement grid-computing architectures in 2006 (see " My Thoughts on BI Trends for 2006," 3 January 2006).
