The conference provides insights into current uses of in-memory computing as well as the future of this rapidly evolving market, including technical deep dives and business-focused sessions, and offers community and connection opportunities for sponsors and attendees. Announced conference sessions include:
- Target’s first foray into an in-memory data grid (and the trips, stumbles, and falls that came with it) - Jim Beyers, Group Engineering Manager; Hitendra Pratap Singh, Senior Software Engineer; and Aaron Riekenberg, Software Engineer, at Target - Available to Promise (ATP) is a new way to talk to guests about product availability and delivery times on Target.com and is used as the reservation engine for orders. In order to provide the guest experience we seek to deliver on Target.com, the team used an in-memory data grid. This talk will cover what the team did right, what we did wrong, and what metrics we achieved.
- In-memory stream processing at Integral Ad Science - Alexey Kharlamov, VP of Technology at Integral Ad Science Inc. - Integral Ad Science employs stream processing systems to extract value from data and relies on Apache Storm to collect, aggregate and make decisions in real-time. Such systems frequently try to use external storage for a persistent state to store real-time data views and provide failure recovery capabilities. This talk will reveal how we handled the challenges when building a 1.5 million msg/sec global processing system with Apache Storm and Apache Kafka.
- Science without the fiction: How understanding persistent memory market trends can help you make the best design choices - Gordon Patrick, Director of Enterprise Computing Memory at Micron Technology Inc. - With persistent memory solutions quickly moving from concept designs to mass-production reality, IT architects face significant questions: How do I get the most value out of my system? How will the broader market adopt and implement today’s NVDIMM portfolio? What applications gain the most benefit from today’s solutions? What are the current challenges for adoption? How should I plan to ensure I keep up with industry trends? This talk will provide a view of how current products are driving new opportunities in persistent memory and provide insight into important industry trends affecting tomorrow’s persistent memory platforms.
- Introducing a non-volatile generic object programming model for in-memory computing (Spark) performance improvement - Gang (Gary) Wang, Sr. Software Developer at Intel Corp - In-memory computing frameworks such as Spark are gaining tremendous popularity for Big Data processing as their in-memory primitives make it possible to eliminate disk I/O bottlenecks. Logically, the more available memory they have the better performance they should achieve. However, unpredicted GC activity from on-heap memory management, a high cost for serialization/de-serialization (SerDe), and burst temporary object creation/destruction greatly impact performance and scale-out ability. This talk will introduce our non-volatile generic Java object programming model for in-memory computing and include a non-volatile computing case using Spark.
- Using lock-free and wait-free in-memory algorithms to turbo-charge high-volume data management - Henning Andersen, Chief Architect at Stibo Systems A/S - Stibo Systems recently released the in-memory component for its Master Data Management (MDM) platform, significantly speeding up most parts of the system. The MDM platform provides high volume data management with many concurrent users. This talk will help developers navigate the landscape of in-memory products and identify the trade-offs involved when choosing a path.
- Demystifying In-Memory Data Grid and NoSQL DB. Are they one and the same? - Pandurang Naik (Pradeep), Principal Consultant at Wipro Limited - With the tremendous growth in big data, low latency and high throughput are the keys for many big data applications. Some traditional database vendors are extending their platforms to support an in-memory capability, while others are offering in-memory data grid and NoSQL solutions for high performance and scalability. This talk will present our point of view on in-memory data grid and NoSQL technology, including our experiences with implementing use cases that demand low latency and high throughput with inherent scale-out features.
