ScaleOut innovates architecture

data grids (IMDGs), has announced the immediate availability of ScaleOut StateServer Version 5.0 beta, Market Watch reports.

IMDGs provide distributed, in-memory storage, which scales application performance and enables powerful query and analysis of stored data. Version 5.0 introduces an innovative new architecture designed to run in cloud infrastructures and easily scale to hundreds of servers. This version also adds the ability to transparently combine multiple IMDGs into a single virtual data grid and other key innovations.

With its ScaleOut GeoServer option, Version 5.0 introduces a full range of features for multi-site integration, Virtual Strategy Magazine notes.

In addition to asynchronous data replication for disaster recovery, GeoServer now lets users combine in-memory data grids at multiple sites into a single, logically coherent, virtual grid, enabling seamless data access across sites without the need to explicitly track which site is hosting requested data.

With the enhanced feature set in ScaleOut AnalyticsServer (formerly Grid Computing Edition), Version 5.0 enables in-memory data grids to offer industry-leading capabilities and performance in parallel query and data analysis. AnalyticsServer now supports optimised parallel query of stored data based on Java or C# object properties, and it fully supports the Microsoft Language Integrated Query (LINQ) standard.
