The functional programming paradigm was explicitly created to support a pure functional approach to problem solving. KPNs were originally designed with distributed programming in mind. In fact, the two approaches were the original schism in programming conceptualization. In our case, an operation would be a function. In GridGain 3.0 the API's got rich, and the code got terse. Monoids are a I've taken the lesson from Dave Fayram and implemented the same approach in PHP. PTL has made it even more functional since not only a function can be abstracted as Action or Func, its result and state can be abstracted and encapsulated as Task In our functional approach we implement a chain of responsibility as below (note the return this statement leading to fluent API making our code more readable):. Sometimes the only way to grok a functional programming concept is reimplementing it. In my opinion, the correct way of representing an operation in a programming language is a function. Functional programming is a form of declarative programming. Yet, it has a lot of the elements of functional programming since v 3.0 with Func and Action. Well, the addition of Data Grid component in GridGain 3.0 definitely helped, but I think the biggest and most powerful change for us was a significant paradigm shift towards Functional Programming (FP) with rich and powerful APIs. The functional approach for APIs just fits so naturally, I am surprised we have not thought about it before (well reading books on Scala definitely helped :). Functional programming: Functional programming is as old as procedural programming. Scala, according to its creator, Martin Odersky, was created as a fusion between functional and object oriented concepts in a statically typed language. They are also heavily used for modeling signal-processing systems.
