This presentation is shared between Dmitriy Setrakyan, Founder and Chief Product Officer at GridGain, and Mikhail Khasin, Senior Managing Director & Head of Core banking Transformation Program at Sberbank, one of the largest banks in Eastern Europe. In this section we cover how GridGain and Apache Ignite helped Sberbank achieve scalability and performance based on distributed in-memory caching and colocated data processing. We closely dissect the data grid architecture and how it was applied. We also go over a few gotchas to watch out for, as well as recommend several best practice approaches, including colocated data, colocated compute, fault-tolerance, distributed queries, deadlock-free transactions, and more. If you are interested in real-time scalable in-memory architectures, then this section is for you.
