are here: http://www.mosabuam.com/vijug.php
See you there!
 After several weeks of
exhausting testing we've released GridGain 2.0.3. This release is probably one of the most tested
releases to date. The goal of this release was to improve stability under the edge/failure cases in large deployments.
We have worked with several of our customers that have GridGain in large production deployments. That gave us plenty of ammunition for
scalability and performance testing. As always,
this release includes number of documentation improvements, new examples and several new functional areas
such as Java5 executor service integration.
Release notes are available here and
downloads are at the usual location.
Enjoy!

Open Source Grid and Cluster Conference
by Nikita Ivanov |
 I'm going
to be presenting at Open Source Grid and Cluster Conference
this Thursday, May 15th, 2008 at Oakland, CA.
This is special type of presentation as this conference is right in the venue of GridGain does - open source
grid computing. I will be doing a short 30 mins "GridGain - Java Grid Computing Made Simple" presentation
in the morning and then participate in a power panel "Trends in Open Source Data Grids" with folks from
Grid Engine, GigaSpaces and Hadoop.
That's going to be interesting :)

On April 21st Nikita Ivanov will be presenting at Cincinnati JUG. Cincinnati is one of those cities we have never been
before so this is going to be interesting. As always - we love to talk and demo our project as it's never dull.
Come see our live demos - coding from "fresh Eclipse" and having grid application in 10-15 minutes from
scratch. And I mean typing every line of code!
If you are around - come to GridGain at Cincinnati JUG
Another point release in 2.0 branch with many bug fixes and documentation improvements. One of the notable
improvements is a modification to our P2P class loading to support our integration work with Groovy/Grails.
We've also incorporated a good measure of feedback from our customers. As always, look at the release
notes for more information.
GridGain 2.0.2 is probably last point release before we roll out 2.5 this
summer that will contain number of new SPIs and major new functionality. Stay tuned!

GridGain At Emerging Systems, Inc For The Enterprise Conference
by Nikita Ivanov |
I am speaking at Emerging Systems, Inc for Enterprise 2008 conference this Thursday, March 27th at Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. If you are attending this conference please come see my presentation - it
will be interesting as always with me doing life coding demonstrations of grid computing. Isn't
it fun to see someone life-coding a grid app just in front of your eyes (and by coding I mean typing it,
testing, debugging and fixing some embarrassing bugs)? That must be :)
For more information: http://www.phillyemergingtech.com/
I will be speaking at Albuquerque JUG this Wednesday, March 26th. I have never been to New Mexico so
this is going to be interesting. If you are around - come to see the presentation! Here is
more information http://www.abqjug.org
I will be speaking at Seattle JUG today. It is going to be fine trip
and an interesting presentation in the city harboring a lot of .NET folks. I'll be talking about "GridGain -
Grid Computing Made Simple", my favorite presentation. I'll get to talk about what is GridGain and why
it is important but most importantly show some real life coding demos.
If you see my presentations before you know that these demos are always life meaning that I
don't prepare any code and don't know your power-point coding... I just open empty Eclipse, creating
new project, and start coding away right in front of your eyes. You will see all, seriously all,
there is to it to create an interesting grid-enabled example applications.
See you there!
Bug fixes, improved documentation, better examples, some new features.
Get it here: http://www.gridgain.org/downloads.shtml
Enjoy!
Great presentation about GridGain: http://tomjadams.blip.tv/
Thanks a lot guys! As far as source code - we are taking it personally :) Size rarely matters and
we think we have one of the cleanest, readable, consistent and well designed source codes
available out there... Hundreds upon hundreds of code review is the clear reason for that.

GridGain 2.0 Is Finally Here!
by Nikita Ivanov |
It
took us extra couple of weeks to fight last minute issues but... here it
is, GridGain 2.0 with all the new features, integrations,
bug-fixes, core hardening and improved documentation. We'll be updating our wiki-based documentation
for the next week so please be patient if there are any discrepancies.
My favorite features: load balancing and data partitioning over any data cache. It is the load
balancing that actually took us for a ride when last minute load tests showed non-optimal load
balancing under the load. It took one of our best brains to actually notice that balanced distribution
was off by ~5-10% and off we went into search for this small problem: is it test,
is it something in OS, VM configurations, in the algorithm's math. In the end of the day it turned
out to be related to a rounding bug in our code and it was quickly fixed. Along the way we actually
made this SPI (adaptive load balancing SPI) more flexible via additional configuration.
I also want to thank all of our customers and users who tried GridGain and gave us
back their feedback. It is absolutely clear to me that
without this feedback GridGain would be a very different product by now.
So, download GridGain 2.0 and see what makes GridGain the fastest growing Java grid computing framework on the planet!
In the press:
Google all press related to GridGain 2.0 release
 This is really exciting
news for our project. Last week we've got a stripped down version of GridGain to start first time
on the Android. Now, this may sound like a fairly simple undertaking but considering
the limitation and current instability of Android platform - this took us awhile to actually
workaround many current bugs and basic incompatibility of Android's Java 5 implementation. Check
this log snapshot I took from our test setup:
Log snapshot...
We are moving full speed ahead with this development and we'll be publishing more information on upcoming integration of GridGain on Android.

GridGain: JBoss Cache and JBoss World 2008
by Nikita Ivanov |
 I'm going to be presenting at
JBoss World 2008 in Orlando on February 14th on topic of
integration between GridGain and JBoss. If you are around - come see my presentation!
With upcoming GridGain 2.0 release we are going to round up our integration plans with JBoss by providing
what I consider truly native blend-in integration. In fact, when you use GridGain with JBoss, GridGain
basically becomes a part of JBoss container that looks as if it just acquired new functionality.
Here's the list of integration points that we implement in totality with GridGain 2.0 (most of them has
been available since GridGain 1.6):
- Loader for JBoss AS
- Support for and integration with JBoss AOP
- Integration with JBoss JMX
- Integration with JBoss Logging
- Integration with JBoss HA
- Integration with JBoss Cache (including support for dynamic data partitioning, load balancing and affinity map/reduce)
- Integration with JGroups
The reason I'm really excited about this integration is that it provides the first fully open
source full-stack grid computing platform for Java, combining state of the art compute and
data grid functionality.
And that's why I think open source Java grid computing has never been more exciting!

GridGain and EC2: Lice Example
by Nikita Ivanov |
 I found this interesting blog
by Jorge Lugo about how GridGain was deployed used in Amazon EC2. Very nice
read with source code and diagrams. Short and to the point. We are actually planning for much deeper
integration with EC2 infrastructure but even at this point EC2 deployment looks pretty cool.
Enjoy!
