Ignite 3rd party support and employment page

[Denis Magda <dm...@apache.org>]

Igniters,

After clicking through various Apache sites and wikis, I discovered that some projects such as Hadoop [2] and Cassandra [3] maintain the pages of 3rd parties that employ Apache experts and/or provide professional support.

Eventually, I dared to assemble a similar page for Ignite [1]. Why? This is how those who gained Ignite expertise can find their next dream job, brag about Ignite there and keep coming to the community contribute to the code base.

I would listen for your opinion on this and then send the page off to the user list calling for companies who need Ignite experts or provide technical support.

Denis, I think a link to this page should be added directly on the
homepage. How about a short sentence right under the Benefits section?

Makes sense, updated the page.

Do we want to add a reference to the page to Ignite main page? If yes then where, any suggestions? For instance, Cassandra has a special “professionally supported” section for this purpose:
 http://cassandra.apache.org <http://cassandra.apache.org/>

Hi Denis,

I think it is very interesting page, it may really help Ignite community to
grow faster. Having this page new contributors will have information about
companies, which requires Ignite expertise.

Should we also mention EPAM here? As far as I now, a number of contributors
works for EPAM.

Sincerely,
Dmitriy Pavlov
