IBM researcher Dr. Stuart Feldman, head of IBM's webahead program, shares his perspective about the future of the Web and how grid computing and on-demand computing will play a role in its future.On-demand has to offer end-to-end access so businesses can get the optimization they need. Web services and grid will promote end-to-end architecture and allow businesses to change how they act. The best way to get to this model is with grid and Web services running. The beauty of Web services and grid is that the user won't know this is the way the job is getting done. They will just be able to share services for efficiencies. on adaption of these technologies, he adds, a real indication is when the adoption increases exponentially. We're seeing grid and Web services doubling but it is still under the radar. When we see it growing exponentially year over year, then we'll begin to see people take notice. I think it will be visible to the general person in three to five years. It is still young. It was visible to insiders last year.
