The Benefits of a Converged Data Platform: Comparing Apache® Ignite™ and Hazelcast

Apache® Ignite™ is an open source solution for workloads that can benefit from a converged data platform. Apache Ignite is the world’s only in-memory computing data fabric. It delivers a broad set of features including an ANSI 99 SQL compliant data grid, a streaming grid, a compute grid, and a service grid. Ignite allows users to massively scale out applications and dramatically increase responsiveness without replacing their existing databases. Although Apache Ignite is a broad solution which addresses many important workloads, it also outperforms point solutions for those same workloads. One case in point is Apache Ignite vs. Hazelcast.


In this one hour webinar, Dmitriy Setrakyan, Chairman of the Apache Ignite Management Committee, will demonstrate how Apache Ignite consistently outperforms Hazelcast on various atomic and transactional cache operations and SQL-based queries as measured on both AWS EC2 and Yardstick Configurations. He will also discuss the features on which only Apache Ignite provides benchmarks because Hazelcast does not provide the functionality.
