As a follow up to GigaSpaces XAP for .net I’d suggest you look at:
Space Task and Distributed Space Tasks also known as Map Reduce in XAP.NET

The Interactive Cloud (Part I)
When we think about cloud computing, the first thing that comes to mind is on-demand computing. Indeed, cloud computing and virtualization providers made it easy to get a machine by just providing a credit card and making an API call…. Continue reading
Using GigaSpaces XAP as a DataGrid or Distributed Data Cache
Although version 7.0 of the Enterprise version of GigaSpaces XAP contains much more than just DataGrid or Caching, for many customer the need for reduced latency and increased performance as well as contention reduction is pressing and for these customers these needs are often a pre-cursor to their first foray into using GigaSpaces. I recently received a set of slide from the GigaSpaces Deputy CTO, Shay Hassidim, which I though were worth posting as they not only go through some of the use cases for Caching and DataGrid but they also show the topologies and patterns that can be used.
I’ve embedded them below but as I know this blog is syndicated, and sometimes the embedding does not work, you can also access them direct from slideshare here.
