Description

Unleashing the Silicon Forest Fire: the open sourcing of GemFire

Pivotal GemFire has had a long and winding journey, starting in 2002, winding through VMware, Pivotal, and finding it’s way to Apache in 2015. Companies using GemFire have deployed it in some of the most mission critical latency sensitive applications in their enterprises, making sure tickets are purchased in a timely fashion, hotel rooms are booked, trades are made, and credit card transactions are cleared. Come to this session to understand:

A brief history of GemFire
Architecture and use cases
Why we are taking GemFire Open Source
Design philosophy and principles

But most importantly: how you can join this exciting community to work on the bleeding edge in-memory platform.
