The Univa Story

Univa partnered with Sun Microsystems in 2007 to co-design technologies that would simplify the deployment and management of Grid Engine clusters. Univa developed software to meet Sun’s HPC go-to-market requirements and became a reseller of Sun Grid Engine.

In January 2011, Univa invested in the people who designed and developed Grid Engine and refactored the company around them. This provided the means by which they could continue to evolve and advance Grid Engine. This move allowed Univa to better support our Grid Engine customers.

In the past 12 months of Grid Engine development we have delivered more code to the community than any third party outside of Sun. We fixed hundreds of issues and shipped 2 new Grid Engine releases, something that had not been done for close to 2 years.

Today, Univa is evolving Grid Engine at an accelerating pace to meet the increasing demands of our rapidly growing customer base. In 2012 Univa will release more new functionality than Grid Engine users have seen in a decade. Along with many new features we will introduce a new product that significantly expands the value and lowers TCO of using Univa Grid Engine.
