Red Hat Enterprise MRG is a next-generation IT infrastructure incorporating Messaging, Realtime, and Grid functionality. It offers increased performance, reliability, interoperability, and faster computing for enterprise customers as it extends Red Hat's Linux Automation Strategy.

Red Hat Enterprise MRG benefits include:

• Messaging that is up to 100-fold faster than alternatives
• Increased interoperability through implementation of AMQP, the first open messaging standard
• Guaranteed, fast response times
• Scheduling to local grids, remote grids, virtual machines, and rented cloud infrastructure
• Harvesting of spare capacity from idle PCs to make full use of resources

Red Hat Enterprise MRG supports the full spectrum of distributed tasks, including:

• High Speed, Reliable, Interoperable Messaging
  

  • Red Hat Enterprise MRG provides messaging that is up to 100-fold faster than other solutions. Furthermore, Red Hat Enterprise MRG implements AMQP, the industry's first open messaging standard, for unprecedented interoperability that is cross-language, cross-platform, multi-vendor, spans hardware and software, and extends down to the wire level.

  • Red Hat is a founding member of the AMQP working group, which is developing the AMQP standard.

• Realtime Performance
  

  • Red Hat Enterprise MRG's realtime capabilities provide customers competitive advantage by delivering guaranteed, fast response times. MRG Realtime enables applications and transactions to run predictably and builds Quality of Service into the core of Linux Automation.

  • With MRG Realtime, CIOs can purchase exactly the capacity they need to meet service levels and compete when time is money. MRG Realtime is a technology that Red Hat has developed and is leading into the mainstream Linux kernel community.

• High Throughput Computing
  

  • Red Hat Enterprise MRG's grid enables enterprises to run their applications faster and make use of all their computing capacity. MRG Grid extends Red Hat's Linux Automation strategy by adding tremendous performance gains, horizontal scale, and further flexibility around deployment and management.

  • Red Hat Enterprise MRG is the first integrated platform that can schedule both High Performance Computing (HPC) and High Throughput Computing (HTC) tasks to local grids, remote grids, and cloud infrastructure; and harvest spare capacity from idle PCs to use all available computing resources for any application. Red Hat is extending MRG Grid so that it can even schedule tasks onto dynamically provisioned virtual machines running on Intel vPro workstations' thin, built-in hypervisors.

  • MRG Grid is based on the Condor project started and hosted at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Red Hat and the University of Wisconsin have signed a unique partnership to make Condor available under an OSI-approved license and jointly develop Condor on-campus at the University of Wisconsin.

Red Hat Enterprise MRG also supports the full spectrum of distributed tasks, including high-speed, reliable, or large file messaging, parallel and cycle-harvesting scheduling, High Performance Computing (HPC) and High Throughput Computing (HTC), and a distributed workload management.

Red Hat Enterprise MRG can run across multiple platforms but also takes deep advantage of Red Hat Enterprise Linux capabilities like clustering, IO, and virtualization for optimal performance and qualities of service.
