A conference in Malmö for software developers

Location: Java track
Time: 2007-11-14 13.00
Level: Intermediate
Jonas Bonér, Terracotta, USA
Jonas Bonér is working at  Terracotta Inc. with a focus on strategy, product development & architecture and technical evangelism.
Terracotta's technology is clustering the JVM and its products deliver enterprise-class infrastructure services to applications transparently at runtime.

Prior to Terracotta, Jonas was part of the JRockit team at BEA Systems, where he was working on runtime tools, JVM support for AOP and technology evangelism.

He was the founder of the AspectWerkz AOP framework and has been a committer to the Eclipse AspectJ project and various other open source projects.

Jonas is a frequent speaker on AOP and other emerging technologies (e.g., JavaOne, TheServerSide Symposium, JAOO, JavaPolis, The Spring Experience, AOSD conferences etc.) and has written many industrial and academic articles on the subject.

Open Source JVM-level Clustering
In this session we show you how you can get Network-Attached Memory as an appliances-like infrastructure service through Terracotta's JVM-level clustering technology (http://terracotta.org). You will learn what Network-Attached Memory is, how it works and how Terracotta can simplify the task of clustering an enterprise application immensely by effectively clustering the JVM underneath the application instead of clustering the application stack itself.

JVM-level clustering can turn single-node, multi-threaded apps into distributed, multi-node apps, often with no code changes. This is possible by plugging in to the Java Memory Model in order to maintain key Java semantics of pass-by-reference, thread coordination and garbage collection across the cluster. Terracotta enables this using only declarative configuration with minimal impact to existing code and provides fine-grained field-level replication which means your objects no longer need to implement Java serialization.

This session will show how it works and how you can start clustering your POJO-based (Web) applications (based on Spring, Struts, Wicket, RIFE, EHCache, Quartz, Lucene, DWR, Tomcat, JBoss, Jetty or Geronimo etc.).
