The new XAP.NET 6.6 version
October 5th, 2008
XAP.NET 6.6 has been recently released, I’m very happy to introduce this new and very cool version.
It’s the first time that XAP.NET is a completely stand alone version. The .msi installation provides a fluent self explanatory installation experience. Once installation is completed you get a fully configured ready to use framework (see download [...]
Integrating GigaSpaces persistency service into an existing tier based system
April 23rd, 2008A common issue I’m facing recently is how to integrate existing tier based applications with GigaSpaces persistency service, AKA persistency as a service (Paas) or mirror . The motivation is often a result of the acknowledgment that a standard tier based application fails to scale when facing the database throughput limitation.
Software Caching technologies (overlooking their [...]
Sharing Results of Expensive Computations
March 25th, 2008A customer recently contacted us to discuss how to use GigaSpaces XAP to minimize the number of times an expensive computation must run. The particular domain is option price stress testing, but the problem is more general and the solution demonstrates a couple of interesting GigaSpaces XAP features.
Consider a service that executes an expensive [...]
SBA –all over the world!
October 22nd, 2007Wow!
This Fellow seems to really like GigaSpaces and SBA!!
Check out his blog here.
I wonder where he got his material for the blog…?
I guess the influence of SBA on the architect is felt worldwide.
: )
It does my heart proud to see more and more the path of the parallel and co-located rising up to meet the feet of the technologists who seek it.

Everyone ‘gets’ it - My job rocks
August 14th, 2007I spoke at GatorJug last week in Florida and had a great experience. The members mentioned that another Space-based event was about to occur - the space shuttle was about to take off and so we all went down to the parking lot and waited for the launch… Unfortunately, the shuttle took off too far away for us to see and we went back to the presentation room without having seen the event.
I did my best to provide the space-based entertainment and delivered a new version of my talk which focuses on the simplicity and power of the just released GigaSpacesXAP.
Of note was the host of the GatorJug who travels a great deal himself and hosts not only GatorJug and OrlandoJug but also Senejug in Senagal, Africa!
It is my hope that I will be able to join Mike in Africa and Slovenia where he apparently also has some influence.
Mike, thank you for your excellent community work and the invitations you have extended to myself and GigaSpaces to spread the word of our SBA platform.
Sincerely,
Owen.
