Digipede Network Professional Edition

Time is critical, and waiting on computers can slow you down. By pooling computing resources across your organization, from data centers to desktops, you can complete key projects faster than your competitors. With access to all available computing power, your team can focus on solving important business challenges. You need a system that is easy to deploy across your entire organization—without requiring consultants or extensive training.

The Digipede Network Professional Edition is designed to meet your needs. It allows you to leverage the power of thousands of computers for your most critical applications. You can allocate resources to multiple pools (e.g., Accounting Department, Desktop Only, After Hours), and assign job priorities to each task. Despite its advanced capabilities, Professional Edition is easy to use, so you can get started quickly. It can be rolled out in phases, with new Agents and resource pools added as your needs evolve—all without requiring consultants or specialized IT expertise.

With the Digipede Workbench, you can easily define, execute, and monitor your jobs. The Workbench features a user-friendly interface for running distributed computing tasks, eliminating the need for complex scripting. Wizards guide you through the learning process, and advanced designers provide access to enhanced system functionality. Whether managing parameter sweeps, Monte Carlo analyses, or complex simulations, the Workbench allows you to handle virtually any command-line executable without the need to rewrite, recompile, or relink code.

For even greater control, you can enhance your applications with the Digipede Framework SDK. For example, with minimal coding, you can use the full power of your network to run large computations directly within Microsoft Excel. The Digipede Framework features .NET and COM APIs and integrates directly with Visual Studio, enabling developers to continue using the familiar tools they already know.
