XAP Elastic Caching is the only product designed to dynamically scale the data layer, responding to loads in real time, while significantly boosting the performance of mission-critical applications. Partnered with powerful event handling and comprehensive administration and monitoring capabilities, this provides enterprise-grade availability and reliability, guaranteeing virtually zero unanticipated downtime.

GigaSpaces XAP In-Memory Data Grid Takes Your Application to the Next Level of Performance & Scalability

• Dynamic, Linear Scalability

  Smart load balancing and elastic provisioning enable scaling to meet fluctuating loads—battle-proven in the world's fastest and most demanding transactional applications.

• Extreme Performance

  An ultra-fast client-side local cache, optimized synchronous and asynchronous replication, batch operations, and data indexing deliver unmatched performance for standard JEE applications, proven through rigorous benchmarking.

• Out of the Box Interoperability

  Native support of popular languages (Java, .Net, C++), APIs (SQL, Map/JCache, JMS, and more), and frameworks (Spring, JEE) enables smooth integration with existing environments, leveraging your team’s existing skill sets, essentially eliminating vendor lock-in and potentially high learning curves.

• Guaranteed High Availability and Enterprise-Grade Reliability

  With the industry’s leading transactional engine, sub-second hot failover, self-healing, and disaster recovery capabililties, the XAP Elastic Caching has no single point of failure and reduces unplanned downtime to virtually zero, as there is always at least one in-memory backup copy for every piece of your data, along with the database as an additional backup.

• Data Center Ready

  XAP Elastic Caching provides a comprehensive cluster-wide monitoring and management UI, as well as an administration API that provides programmatic control over every element of the In-Memory Data Grid

• Security

  XAP Elastic Caching is the only in-memory data grid that offers security for multi-tenant scenarios with multiple enterprise applications. XAP Elastic Caching offers SSL communication between all data grid components, authentication, authorization, and fine-grained security for specific operations.

GigaSpaces XAP was designed and built from the ground up to ensure a pain-free evolutionary path for migrating your existing applications, by ensuring simplicity of use through support of diverse languages, frameworks, standards, and APIs, bringing developer learning curves to a bare minimum.
