Bay Area In-Memory Computing Meetup: Aug. 23, 2018

Denis Magda, director of product management at GridGain Systems, was one of three featured speakers at the Aug. 23 Bay Area In-Memory Computing Meetup in Menlo Park, Calif.

The title of his talk was: "Best Practices for Deploying Distributed Databases and In-Memory Computing Platforms with Kubernetes."

In-memory computing technologies such as in-memory data grids (IMDG) and databases (IMDB), NoSQL and NewSQL databases can make so many things easier for a developer. But implementing DevOps for these distributed technologies and the related storage can be difficult. Luckily Kubernetes has come to the rescue!

Learn how Kubernetes can orchestrate a distributed database or in-memory computing solutions using Apache Ignite as an example. Dwnia will explain how to:

* Deploy, provision and manage an IMDG or IMDB when you wish to keep data in RAM
* Set up and manage persistence for the in-memory technologies above or configure a disk-based distributed database
* Set up auto-discovery and automated horizontal scalability, and use other tricks for high availability

The other two speakers were:
* Roland Lee, head of products at Heimdall Data
* Sam Drake, architect of the Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database
