Presentation Abstracts
Coherence Today
Cameron Purdy (speaker bio) Vice President of Development (Oracle)
This presentation addresses how Coherence "started", what we are doing today with Coherence, including some exciting information about the recent Coherence 3.5+ releases, the Coherence C++ client, and what is planned for the future of Oracle Coherence.
More Coherence War Stories
Patrick Peralta (speaker bio) Senior Software Engineer (Oracle)
Come listen to battle stories about tackling challenges in real production environments with real customers (who lived happily ever after.) We will discuss Coherence operational best practices to avoid production issues and what to do if (when?) issues arise.
Performance and Scalability Revisited - In-Memory Data Grids
Aleksandar Seovic (speaker bio) Founder and Managing Director (S4HC)
Building scalable, highly-available applications that perform well is not an easy task. These features cannot be simply "bolted" onto an existing application – they have to be architected into it. Unfortunately, the things we need to do to achieve them are often in conflict with each other, and finding the right balance is crucial.
In this session we will discuss why scaling web applications is difficult and will look at some of solutions we have come up with in the past to deal with the issues involved. We will then look at how in-memory data grids can make our jobs easier by providing a solid architectural foundation to build our applications on top of.
If you are new to in-memory data grids, you are guaranteed to leave the presentation eager to learn more. However, even if you are already using one you will likely walk out with a few ideas on how to improve performance and scalability of your applications.
Introduction to the Coherence Incubator
Noah Arliss (speaker bio) Software Development Manager (Oracle)
The Coherence Incubator hosts innovative example implementations for commonly used design patterns, system integration solutions, distributed computing concepts and other artifacts designed to enable rapid delivery of solutions to potentially complex business challenges built using or based on Oracle Coherence.
The talk provides an overview of Coherence Incubator functionality, including the Processing Pattern and Push Replication, it will also introduce what is coming in the next release.
