Infinispan

Infinispan is the successor of JBoss Cache.{{sfn | Adamski | 2018 | loc=Chapter §15 Sharing the Web Sessions - Infinispan | pp=383-384}} The project was announced in 2009.

• Transactions
• MapReduce
• Support for LRU and LIRS eviction algorithms
• Through pluggable architecture, infinispan is able to persist data to filesystem, relational databases with JDBC, LevelDB, NoSQL databases like MongoDB, Apache Cassandra or HBase and others.{{cite web|url=http://infinispan.org/docs/stable/user_guide/user_guide.html|title=Infinispan User Guide|access-date=2016-08-24|archive-date=2016-08-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160829152512/http://infinispan.org/docs/stable/user_guide/user_guide.html|url-status=dead}}

Typical use-cases for Infinispan include:

• Distributed cache,{{sfn | Adamski | 2018 | loc=Chapter §15 Sharing the Web Sessions - Infinispan | pp=383-384}} often in front of a database
• Storage for temporal data, like web sessions
• In-memory data processing and analytics
• Cross-JVM communication and shared storage
• MapReduce Implementation in the In-Memory Data Grid.
• Embedding storing (Vector Search)

Infinispan is also used in academia and research as a framework for distributed execution and storage.
