Terracotta Community Terracotta DB

Welcome to the next-generation in NoSQL data management!

Terracotta DB is an In-Memory data platform that supports hybrid translytical workloads, providing both caching and operational storage, as well as server-side analytical search and compute capabilities. A single, unified architecture that leverages the foundational technology used in BigMemory – our industry leading In-memory Data Grid (IMDG) – to offer blazingly-fast performance for combined operational and analytical processing.

It introduces an improved distributed Ehcache API based on the JSR 107 caching standard and a brand new TCStore API for storage and compute. Together, these APIs give developers the necessary tools to build real-time applications where latency, performance, and scalability are a necessity.

New capabilities across the platform include:

Access to an aggregate-oriented, Key Value NoSQL store
Stream-based data pipelines for search & compute
Advanced management, monitoring, and cluster setup for operational ease
New webMethods adapter for building microservices in Terracotta DB
Integration with Software AG’s Apama Streaming Analytics
Ability to build interactive dashboards on in-memory data powered by Software AG’s MashZone NextGen
Improved backup and restore functionality for operational support

TCStore API

Terracotta DB’s new TCStore API enables you to store, access and compute huge volumes of data, in memory, all at predictable low latency, regardless of scale. Under the hood it is powered by a completely new and powerful storage engine which Is built upon a very high performance and highly scalable architecture.

Feature of the TCStore API include:

Flexible Data Model

Aggregate oriented, Key-Value store
Loosely schemed modelling of data with structured and typed aggregate values within records

Storage

In-memory storage with optional persistence to disk and ultra-fast recovery
Java-based Key/Value store optimized for data storage workloads
Secondary in-memory indexes to speed-up search and compute

Distributed Store

Supports various scale-out and High Availability (HA) deployment configurations
Flexible, fine-granular configuration of availability, consistency, and durability

Data Analysis

Search and Analyze capabilities that work naturally with Java 8 technologies
Java stream API to filter, aggregate, map data
A library of pre-implemented lambda functions enabling server-side execution of queries

Terracotta Server and Management Console

Along with the two APIs, Terracotta DB is built upon the next generation of Terracotta Server Array (TSA). Both the Ehcache API and the TCStore API leverage the power of this new distributed computing platform with reduced complexity and enhanced performance and scalability. Similarly the shared platform provides a common web-based monitoring and management application with Terracotta Management Console (TMC).

Main features of the platform include:

Distributed In-memory Data Management: Able to manage 10-100x more data in memory than data grids

Scalability Without Complexity: Simple configuration and deployment option for scale-up and/or scale-out to meet growing demand and to facilitate capacity planning

High Availability: Instant failover for continuous uptime and services

Persistent Application State:

Automatic permanent storage of all current shared in-memory data with ultra-fast recovery upon server restarts
The Fast Restart (FRS) feature provides enterprise-ready crash resilience by keeping a consistent, real-time record of in-memory data on a disk. After a shutdown – planned or unplanned – the next time the application starts up, all of the data that was in memory prior to the shutdown is made available again

Automatic Node Reconnection: Temporarily disconnected server instances and clients rejoin the cluster without operator intervention
