Objectwave Launches New Persistence and Data Caching Developer Framework with Gemfire in Mind
First Published Monday, 26 November 2007 from Automated Trader : Data News
ObjectWave has announced the launch of JGrinderX, a next generation persistence and data-caching framework for grid computing solutions. JGrinderX is an intuitive framework that provides the transparency developers need to efficiently create applications for systems that share large amounts of operational data and process high volumes of transactions.
Jags Ramnarayan, Chief Architect of Gemstones Systems: "The beauty of JGrinderX is that it is easy for developers to understand and use."
Enterprise companies can benefit from JgrinderX by allowing
developers to efficiently develop their distributed applications
with no need to understand the complexities involved with moving
their data across application memory caches. Developed
applications in core-banking systems, trading systems and payment
processing platforms are just a few examples of where the
technology can be used.
For most financial services firms, coping with ever-increasing
volumes and retaining large amounts of operational data in memory
so it can be processed at lightning speed is a significant
challenge. Over the last several years, brokerages, banks and
exchanges have addressed this problem by adopting grid computing
solutions and other high performance technologies. In addition,
they improved access to operational data and accelerated business
processing by implementing distributed caching technologies such
as GemStone's GemFire, Terracotta and GigaSpaces' eXtreme
Application Platform (XAP).
JGrinderX goes one step further by providing a bridge between
application Java objects and the data source, making data access
transparent to the applications. Its architecture gives financial
firms the flexibility to add new data access brokers without much
impact to the application code. In addition, new adapters that
automatically interface with existing caching technologies
simplify application development.
"The beauty of JGrinderX is that it is easy for developers to
understand and use," says Jags Ramnarayan, Chief Architect of
Gemstones Systems. "By isolating the code from the underlying
technology, integrating applications with our GemFire
Enterprise's distributed data infrastructure is straightforward."
"With JGrinderX financial firms can seamlessly integrate systems
and manage data end-to-end across the enterprise," adds Sam
Cinquegrani, CEO and founder, ObjectWave. "Ultimately, that means
they can deliver better service to their customers at a more
competitive price-point."
