TL;DR When I talk to the developers about Hazelcast, many of them ask how Hazelcast is different from NOSQL databases, and particularly from MongoDB. In this blog post, I will try to answer this question once and for all. Introduction MongoDB is an open source, document-oriented database designed with both scalability and developer agility in mind. Instead of storing your data in tables and rows as you would with a relational database, in MongoDB you store JSON-like documents with a dynamic schema. In short, MongoDB is an NOSQL data store, primarily concerned with storing/persisting and retrieving schema-free data. ...
TL;DR This April, I’m going to deliver half-day workshop «Ground-up Introduction To In-Memory Data» at Code PaLOUsa conference in Louisville, KY. You’re an architect or a developer with years of experience creating amazing applications. You’ve just been assigned to a gasp low latency project! Because you’re an expert, you’re expected to master a new In-Memory caching/data technology and be productive from day 1. You feel completely lost as you open the JAR files. Not only that, but you have to contend with new topologies and data stores like NoSQL or Hadoop. ...

New achievement unlocked - I’m going to deliver the talk at JavaOne 2013! This year I will be talking about very demanding and interesting topic for me - about integration Java and JavaScript. Here is quick abstract of my [BOF5793] session: "" There is a perception in the Java community that JavaScript is a second-rate interpreted language whose main purpose is to make Web pages a little prettier. But JavaScript is actually a powerful, flexible, dynamically typed language. And today the language has been experiencing a revival driven by the interest in HTML5. Nashorn is a modern JavaScript engine available on the JVM, and it’s already included with JDK8 builds. This presentation is about building polyglot applications with Java and JavaScript. "" ...
It will not likely that you will start developing an enterprise HTML5 applications without using one of the JavaScript frameworks. One of the most feature-complete frameworks is ExtJS from Sencha, but its learning curve is a bit steep. Our company, Farata Systems, has developed an open source software Clear Toolkit for ExtJS. Clear Toolkit includes an Eclipse plugin called Clear Data Builder (CDB). It is a productivity tool - a code generator - that can create a CRUD application for you in no time. This application will have HTML/JavaScript/ExtJS client and Java-based server. In this article, you will learn how jumpstart development of such Web applications. ...
