Sessions at JUDCon Boston 2012 about Big Data on Monday 25th June

Infinispan can be configured with cache stores allowing it to store data in a persistent location such as a file system, JDBC etc. There are two different methods of updating the cache store - write-through/synchronous and write-behind/asynchronous. GlusterFS is a distributed, scale-out file system that can scale to petabytes of storage. This talk will explore the idea of how GlusterFS can be used as persistent write-through cache store for Infinispan. The talk will also detail optimizations that can be leveraged from both Infinispan and GlusterFS for optimal persistent caching.

Big Data is a popular computing paradigm of recent times. Apache Hadoop is the open source answer for Big Data. In this session, we will look at the Hadoop ecosystem - Map Reduce, HDFS, HBase etc. The presentation will discuss experiments at using JBoss.org projects in Hadoop ecosystem (web applications on JBoss AS7, security using PicketBox/PicketLink, clustering/cache using Infinispan/JGroups etc).
