New to Apache Ignite? This 90 minute hands-on training webinar is the fastest way for Java developers to get started with Ignite 3 and GridGain 9. In this session, you’ll learn how to spin up an cluster, connect a Java application, and work with distributed data using Ignite’s Java and SQL APIs.
We’ll cover the core building blocks of Ignite – tables, schemas, partitioning, and replication – and show how they translate into Java code. By the end of the session, you’ll understand how Ignite works, why it delivers high performance at scale, and how to start building your own Ignite-powered applications with confidence.
