Kirill Sheynkman, Managing Director, RTP Ventures
"The real-time need to process big data is here, and it's getting bigger with every tweet, like, and NFC wave. By
uniquely combining compute and in-memory data grids into a scalable, real-time platform, GridGain takes webscale
data analytics beyond ETL-like Hadoop scripts into the modern world. With a solid technological
foundation, GridGain lets businesses stem the swelling information tide, and enables them to make real-time
decisions according to their rules without breaking the bank for refrigerator-sized data appliances. The
investment rationale is simple: lucrative and growing market, unique company-created technology, and a smart
founding team that proved they can build product before asking for money -- that's RTP's strike zone."
Salil Deshpande, General Partner, Bay Partners
"It's been a joy to be involved in the company’s progress over the last three years, and see the creation of the
only middleware platform to provide integration between compute and in-memory data grid technologies. I'm
excited for the opportunities GridGain will have going forward."
Nikita Ivanov, Founder and CEO, GridGain Systems

I will be presenting the talk "Distributed Functional Programming Done Right" at
Scalathon 2011 hosted at Penn University on July 16-17th. What a
great crowd!
Looking forward to catch up with folks from Circumflex and give my grief to good
people developing IDEA Scala plugin :) Two days of Scala hacking - I'll probably
going to be wiped out for sure in the end.
Right after two grueling days at
Scalathon 2011
I will stop by at Boston to present "In-Memory Data Grid with Scala and GridGain"
to Boston Scala User Group.
Last time I presented there (a year ago) - it was a great talk!
If you are round Boston and interested in In-Memory Data Grids (and Scala!) - make sure to stop by!
