This book covers the ObjectMap, Entity and Query APIs for interacting with objects in the grid. It shows client/server configurations and interactions, as well as the powerful DataGrid API. DataGrid allows us to send code into the grid, which can be run where the data lives. Equally important are the design patterns that go alongside using a data grid. This book covers the major concepts you need to know that prevent your client application from becoming a performance bottleneck. By the end of the book, you'll be able to write software using the eXtreme Scale APIs and take advantage of a linearly scalable middleware layer. What you will learn from this book Explore different ways of interacting with data in the grid Configure eXtreme Scale instances programmatically and via XML configuration files Achieve extreme performance by using grid agents Explore practical data grid usage patterns Integrate a data grid and a database Configure eXtreme Scale for long-term deployments through educated capacity planning Configure an eXtreme Scale client application using Spring Give your database a shock-absorber by putting a data grid in front of it Support thousands of concurrent clients by adding capacity to the grid and scale out linearly Protect your data by keeping it on multiple server racks and in multiple data centres Explore the features of WebSphere eXtreme Scale by expanding the Entity and Query repertoire Approach This book is a real-world practical tutorial with lots of examples. The data grid concepts are clearly explained and code samples are provided. The concepts are applicable to all IMDGs and the examples represent the eXtreme Scale approach to the problem. Who this book is written for This book is aimed at intermediate-level JavaEE Developers who want to build applications that handle larger data sets with massive scalability requirements. No previous experience of WebSphere eXtreme Scale is required.
