Tangosol CEO to Address GridWorld Conference


Tangosol Inc. CEO Cameron Purdy is a featured speaker at GridWorld in Washington, D.C. Purdy will speak to attendees on "Creating Grid-Based Data Infrastructures for the Enterprise" at 10 a.m. on Sept. 12.

The program will focus on Grid-based infrastructures, which are used to achieve unlimited application scalability and continuous availability across multiple datacenters. Purdy will show how data grid capabilities (such as coherent in-memory caching, dynamic data partitioning, and parallel query and process execution) function, and how they are being mapped onto Grid infrastructures. He will explore how organizations are successfully using data grid capabilities to solve increasingly difficult and complex problems and how they are getting the maximum utility from Grid computing, especially on a global scale.

Purdy is the founder and president of Tangosol, and a frequent presenter at industry conferences. He has received a number of awards in recognition of his contribution to the Java community and regularly participates in industry standards development.

The GridWorld conference runs Sept. 11-15, and is open to the public. Registration is at www.gridworld.com/live/42/register.

The Grid-Cloud Connection (Pt. I): Compare and Contrast

Burned to some degree by the confusion surrounding grid computing, many vendors have drastically cut the term from their marketing strategies.
