Apache Ignite overview

What is Apache Ignite

Apache Ignite™ is ...
memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing platform
for transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads
delivering in-memory speeds at petabyte scale

Supported features

Hierarchical Architecture

Clustering and deployment

Clustering

• Server nodes
  • Act as containers for data and computations
  • Generally started as standalone processes
• Client nodes
  • Provide a cluster entry point to run operations
  • Embedded in applications code

Deployment

• Nodes are logical entities
  • Runs in a JVM process
  • Many nodes in a single JVM process
• On-Premise and Cloud
  • Physical server or VM
  • AWS, Azure, Google Compute Engine
• Docker
