ScaleOut Software, a provider of in-memory data grid (IMDG) solutions, has released ScaleOut StateServer Version 5 with increased scalability and public cloud support. Released in beta earlier this year, StateServer Version 5 also integrates expanded analysis capabilities with property-based parallel query, includes global data integration, and contains other important new features.
Version 5’s new membership architecture significantly advances IMDG scalability. Currently, the use of IMDGs is quickly expanding, and the need for scalability to hundreds of servers has emerged as a requirement to handle increased workloads and to enable the use of IMDGs for real-time data analytics. With Version 5 it is now practical to deploy very large in-memory data grids holding terabytes of data that provide seamless elasticity and have powerful operating characteristics that set a new standard for speed, reliability, and ease of use.
