Triangle Java Users Group Presents:

GridGain – Open Cloud Platform

presented by Nikita Ivanov

Monday, May 18, 2009
6:30 PM - 9:00 PM

4001 E. Chapel Hill-Nelson Highway
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina

Abstract:

The topic of this presentation is about fastest growing open source Java-based Open Cloud Platform called GridGain and how it is ideally suited for emerging native cloud application development.
The presentation starts with a brief introduction to grid computing and cloud computing, followed by a discussion about a synergy between two and the actual use cases.
Further, GridGain and its key features will be reviewed with an emphasis on how these features simplify running grid-enabled applications on the cloud environment. Real-life example of running largest publicly known grid on Amazon using GridGain will be discussed.
Live coding example of creating grid-enabled application with GridGain will demonstrate the “powerful simplicity” of the GridGain features.
