Performance is key. Consistency is a must.

Geode is an open source, distributed, in-memory database for scale-out applications.

Elastic performance

All data is stored in-memory for low latency. Performance scales linearly as nodes are added. Data is distributed automatically between nodes to optimize performance.

Database consistency

Data is persisted in write-optimized disk storage. Consistency checking is configurable between highest performance caching and ACID transactions.

Resilient clustering

Clusters fail-over to other nodes in case of failures, and rebalance remaining resources. Clusters self-heal when nodes return to operation.
