Data Fabrics—also sometimes called Grid Computing¹²—offer performance and elastic scalability capabilities that such business situations demand.

12. This is not to say that Fabrics and Grids are identical concepts, but for those looking at this architecture in a general way these labels often mean the same thing. Certainly marketing and sales often limit ...
