A suite of 3 powerful application infrastructure products that can be bought separately or as a package: WebSphere Virtual Enterprise, WebSphere eXtreme Scale, Compute Grid

• WebSphere Virtual Enterprise (formerly Operations Optimization): Provides application infrastructure virtualization capabilities that lower costs required to create, manage, and run enterprise applications and an SOA environment. It increases flexibility and agility to ensure business process integrity, improve service, application performance, and better manage health.
• WebSphere eXtreme Scale (formerly WebSphere Extended Deployment Data Grid): It allows business applications to process exceptionally large volumes of transactions with extreme efficiency and linear scalability. WebSphere eXtreme Scale operates as an in-memory data grid that dynamically caches, partitions, replicates, and manages application data and business logic across multiple servers. It provides transactional integrity and transparent failover to ensure high availability, high reliability, and constant response times. WebSphere eXtreme Scale is an essential IBM software technology for conducting extreme transaction processing.
• Compute Grid: Enables the scheduling, execution and monitoring of batch type jobs with enhanced service policy and workload management
• Greater value may be realized by purchasing the full WebSphere Extended Deployment solution to address multiple requirements. Otherwise, purchasing a single component may fit your needs best.
