“Grid Computing” Google Trend vs. Oracle Grid Index

July 24th, 2006 Alex Gorbachev No comments

I was looking on the grid computing syndrome and to my surprise Google Trends “Grid Computing” shows that hype around it was actually going down since 2004:

Google Trend
Interesting that the Oracle Grid Index shows continuous growth:

Oracle Grid Index

I can only think of some possible reasons for this deviation:

  • People are moving from talking about it to really doing it.
  • Oracle (well, Quocirca) publishes some biased or non-relevant results.
  • “Senior IT influencers and decision makers” are overstating the figures.
  • Google Trend graph is not relevant.
