Easy to start using the solution to prototype and test new ideas. Simplicity to add new features to the first solution delivered to answer new business needs.
Solving a capacity problem was the first motivation for implementation. Still, the choice of InsightEdge aimed to go much further and initiate a data-centric type transformation of several existing systems, leading to simplification, cost-cutting, and a high level of performance.
Even if single request processing time was not the challenge, we get perfect response time and tried to stress the system up to more than 2000 requests per second without noticing an impact on performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Knowing we can do a lot in many ways due to all InsightEdge capabilities (connectors, storage styles, ...), it can be tricky to find the best implementation for a given problem. Many will work, but if you need to have real-time top performance, you need to work on it and be ready to understand how the solution is managing memory.
Depending on your requirements and the volume of data stored, you may need a lot of memory in your virtual machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We are using Gigaspaces XAP as our primary data storage solution for our entire online system. Since we adopted XAP in 2010 we have grown in customers, activity and system complexity many times over and our backend microservices powered by Gigaspaces has always been able to scale and handle every business demand we've thrown at it.
Gigasoaces XAP delivers very low latency and high scalability across our 1400+ microservices. It allows our developers to focus on functionality and business instead of code optimizations and complex design solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Development of the core product seemed to slow down during a few years. This has changed dramatically during the last years, though! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Excellent architectural features that are worth calling out, such as:
Faster data access from partitioned memory grid
Hot & cold optimized caching
Ability to ingest real-time/historical data from diverse data sources such as Kafka, RDBMS systems & Object Stores with ease
Java/Spark-based data processing capabilities.
Event-based processing
Multi-model storage
Multiple language/framework support (Java/.Net/Rest/Spark/BI Tools/SQL) for data consumption
Scalability and Data replication options
Data Grid Fault Tolerance
Out of the Security and ability to extend the same
Multiple Dev-Ops Integration options
Support for Hybrid Cloud
The features mentioned above qualify it for a centralized Enterprise Data Integration Hub, especially for cases that require time/mission-critical real-time analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In my humble opinion, multiple toned down versions with abiliity to switch off/on features can be built and marketed, for different audience personas, such as - Font End App Developers/Owners, Analytics Developes/Owners, Datawarehouse developers/Owners etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The platform (XAP) is fast and stable and since its built in Java we can easilly integrate with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The platform has some core dependencies such as the underlying JDK, Spring and others, this blocks us from upgrade our services freely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It´s a platform out of the box that allows address end to end data use cases, including analytics and real-time data processing (both transactional and analytical) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
GiGASPACES offers a large range of options using it and it´s could be not too clear how is the best way to combine it with already existing architectures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great performance, easy to use API to interact with the cache. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are many processes to run the product, GSM, GSC, GSA, LUS. But we are running the product in Kubernetes environment, so many of the processes have been simplified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its relatively new and well maintained with active support .
Based on Java
Ability to load balance , replication and failover features.
Flexibility and Stability
Support for automated Testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My observation on Gigaspaces is more focused on cloud based / web based solutions - auto installation and auto deployments which are all good features for web based or browser based applications
but for our use we would prefer to have a simpler or lighter version focused on for standalone installations and usages with high focus on performance and stability
(Clear ability to cut down unwanted features and get a lighter model with much higher performance )
Please feel free to correct me - i may be wrong though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
