Ignite Fundamentals Training (Java)
Training Schedule
Target Audience
Java developers, architects, and engineers evaluating Apache Ignite (or GridGain) or getting started with Ignite 2/GridGain 8 for distributed data and high-performance applications.
New to Apache Ignite? This first of three 90 minute hands-on training webinars is the fastest way for Java developers to get started with Ignite 2 or GridGain 8 (which shares the same codebase). In this session, you’ll learn how to spin up an Ignite/GridGain cluster, connect a Java application, and work with distributed data using Ignite’s Java and SQL APIs.
We’ll cover the core building blocks of Ignite/GridGain – tables, schemas, partitioning, and replication – and show how they translate into Java code. By the end of the session, you’ll understand how Ignite/GridGain works, why it delivers high performance at scale, and how to start building your own Ignite-powered applications with confidence.
What You’ll Learn:
- How Apache Ignite 2/GridGain 8 is structured and where it fits in modern Java architectures
- How to start and initialize an Ignite cluster
- How to connect to Ignite/GridGain using the Java client
- How to create tables, insert data, and run queries using SQL and the Java API
- How Ignite/GridGain distributes data (partitioning, replication, colocation) and why it matters
Agenda:
- Introduction to Apache Ignite 2/GridGain 8: What Ignite/GridGain is and when to use it
- Cluster Basics: Starting and initializing an Ignite cluster
- Connecting with Java: Java client setup and configuration
- Working with Data:
- Tables, SQL queries, and Java APIs
- Common access patterns
- Distributed Data Fundamentals: Partitioning, replication, and performance basics
