Location: Guys American Kitchen and Bar

Welcome to the inaugural gathering of the NYC In-Memory Computing Meetup! Join us at Guys American Kitchen and Bar (http://guysamerican.com/) on Times Square (we'll have a fully catered private room) for a talk featuring GridGain technology evangelist Akmal Chaudhri, PhD.

This meetup will be live-streamed on GridGain's YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/GridGainSystems) -- available for playback immediately afterward.

Akmal will start with a brief high-level overview of distributed computing fundamentals and in-memory computing use cases. Then he'll introduce the open-source Apache Ignite, an in-memory computing platform that enables high-performance transactions, real-time streaming, and fast analytics in a single, comprehensive data access and processing layer.

His presentation, "Powering up banks and financial institutions with distributed systems," will explore Apache® Ignite™ (https://ignite.apache.org/) features for financial applications, such as ACID compliance, SQL compatibility, persistence, replication, security, fault tolerance and more.

A customer case study will also be presented. He'll analyze one of the largest Apache Ignite deployments in the world at Sberbank, a Russian and Eastern European Bank, by walking through the overall architecture and demonstrating various implementation and deployment challenges.

We're also looking for a second speaker, so if you have a talk around in-memory computing, please let me know! I'm also looking for co-organizers to help with this meetup, along with sponsors and speakers.
