Apache Ignite Service Grid: Foundation of Your Microservices-based Solution
Whether it is a Microservices-based solution that is used under high load and processes rapidly growing volumes of data, or an application that does not use Microservices, both usually face the same issues:
- Data is still stored in disk-backed databases that can no longer keep up with growing volumes of data that have to be stored and processed in parallel. As a result, conventional databases are becoming a performance bottleneck affecting the overall solution or application.
- A solution's high-availability (HA) guarantee was formerly a nice-to-have feature. Today, the HA of an application has become a de-facto requirement.
During this session, Dani will provide a step-by-step guide on how to build a fault-tolerant and scalable microservice-based solution using Apache Ignite's Service Grid and other components to resolve these aforementioned issues.
Dani Traphagen is a solution architect for GridGain, where she consults on high-tech caching architectures. Previously, Dani consulted at DataStax and led technical training internationally on Apache Cassandra and DataStax Enterprise. Her passion for teaching began while working in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science department at the University of California, Berkeley, where she taught scientists technical skills, helped create a data science course, and raised awareness about the growing open science community. Dani has since volunteered with and generated training content for a number of organizations, including software carpentry, women in technology, rOpenSci, and GitHub. Earlier in her career, Dani worked in cartilage tissue engineering at the University of California, San Francisco, where her interests for heavy machinery, science, and code fused. If you don’t catch Dani behind a computer, you’ll often see her in the wild, backpacking, riding her bike, or climbing things. She also makes sure to keep the coffee business afloat in her hometown of Hermosa Beach.
