This is so amazing. Google released information about the existance of MapReduce in 2004, there are papers at lab.google.com. Sun's Niagara is also a few months old. It is totally amazing to see how long it takes until information about these mechanisms is discussed by the main stream media.

I wonder if "Driad" is spelled correctly. I am unable to find information about this MS software.
