Sun Microsystems has announced that it is contributing to the National Grid in Singapore, a SGD 500,000 comprehensive compute and storage grid facility and infrastructure. This compute farm known as the Grid Discovery Zone will enable developers to create and test grid-ready applications readily.

The Asia Pacific Science and Technology Center (APSTC) and the Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Network (APBioNet) will be one of the first groups of users to use the Grid Discovery Zone to develop bioinformatics applications.
