Big data and scalability is more than ever before the focus of webapps - on top of the always increasing need for fast response time for complex and rich website, such as Facebook, native mobile client have largely increased the existing load, the underlying complexity of such systems.
With this in mind, many data grid products arise, in both the Open Source community and the proprietary world. The purpose of this talk is to illustrate, using a set of common use cases, how one can use a data grid such as InfiniSpan, either to enhance existing application - increasing their ability to cope with increasing load, or designed directly cloud-ready applications.

##The Linux Way: Rebuilding The Unix Way for a New Era
The original UNIX philosophy could be summed up: “Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work together. Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface.”
Linux, as a “UNIX clone”, supports a command line environment that a 1970s-era Unix hacker would find familiar — sed, awk, ps, and the rest are all there. But Linux has not stood still since catching up with proprietary UNIX. Using Linux for new jobs on new categories of computers has led us to extend the platform to suit our needs.
This talk will cover some of the ways the Linux platform has moved away from the Unix philosophy, while still holding true to some fundamental values, and how we users and hackers are defining a new Linux Way, distinct from the Unix Way.
