Oracle Coherence (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In computing, Oracle Coherence, a Java-based in-memory data-grid product, provides data caching, data replication and distributed computing services. It is aimed at addressing issues with the traditional database centric application to improve on reliability, scalability and performance. Coherence uses Backing Map to allow further persistence to databases and other storage. Though the product is implemented in Java, .NET and C++ connectivity is offered though the Coherence*Extend component. Some Coherence usage patterns are open-source and are listed and supported though the Oracle Coherence incubator. These patterns implement features such as messaging, work distribution and data replication across WANs with Coherence.
