Benefits & Features

Easily handle huge transaction volumes

More and more business is being performed via online applications, which increases web activity and forces applications to handle unprecedented and growing transaction volumes.

Red Hat JBoss Data Grid can be used for:

  • Elastic scaling: Spin up and down distributed nodes to guarantee required response times.

  • Reliable grid-based data storage: Easily distribute data across multiple nodes. Data can be replicated in memory, written to disk, or stored in a relational database for fault tolerance.

  • Schema-less key/value store: A NoSQL key/value data store that accommodates virtually any structure in a data element.

Meet high uptime expectations

To keep customers loyal and engaged, applications must perform with consistency and deliver seamless customer service, even during peak activity times and unexpected traffic spikes.

Red Hat JBoss Data Grid delivers high uptime via:

  • Cross-datacenter replication: Achieve zero downtime as well as fault tolerance and load balance for “follow the sun” capabilities and geographic data partitioning with failover.

  • Zero-downtime rolling upgrades: Upgrade your cluster from JBoss Data Grid version 6.1 to the next version without any downtime, resulting in increased, uninterrupted performance for remote users and applications.

Deploy in open hybrid cloud environments

On-premise or in a cloud? Software, platform, or data-as-a-service? Centralized or distributed? Open source or proprietary? IT infrastructures are complex, and organizations need flexible applications that can be used in a variety of open hybrid cloud environments. Not only can Red Hat JBoss Data Grid run in any environment—on-premise or cloud—the data grid can also act as a data abstraction layer in hybrid cloud solutions.

Meet demands for accurate, real-time information

Having real-time or near real-time access to accurate information can make the difference between right and wrong decisions. In today's fast-paced environment, you can’t afford to wait for business-critical information.

With in-memory speeds and advanced functionality like expiration and eviction, Red Hat JBoss Data Grid shortens response times and boosts failure resilience in applications.

Streamline interactions with the complex, rigid data tiers

Red Hat JBoss Data Grid speeds time-to-market by reducing the complexity of interacting with traditional databases.

  • Compatibility with many types of applications: Red Hat JBoss Data Grid works with applications in any language and by using any framework, including Java™, C#, Spring, and others—deployed in an application or standalone.

  • Remote application programming interface (API) access: Red Hat JBoss Data Grid makes removal access easy via a variety of APIs, including REST, memcached, HotRod, or simple map-like API.

  • Works with existing relational databases: You don't need to replace a relational database or spend time and effort on complex relational partitioning schemes. Red Hat JBoss Data Grid caches existing data stores, keeping data transactions consistent and available in the store-of-record.
