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."
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.”
