In-Memory Computing Essentials for Architects and Developers

DataViz My

<H2>About the workshop:</H2>
This workshop is the first collaborative workshop between <A HREF="http://www.dataviz.my/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">DataViz My</A> and <A HREF="https://www.gridgain.com/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">GridGain</A>. Attendees will be introduced to the fundamental capabilities of in-memory computing platforms that boost high-load applications and services, and bring existing IT architecture to the next level by storing and processing massive quantities of data both in RAM and, optionally, on disk. The capabilities and benefits of such platforms will be demonstrated with the use of <A HREF="https://ignite.apache.org/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Apache Ignite</A>, which is an in-memory computing platform that is durable, strongly consistent, and highly available with powerful Key-Value, SQL and Compute APIs.
<H3>At the end of the workshop, attendees will know how to: </H3>
