SAN FRANCISCO, USA: Terracotta, Inc., solution provider of in-memory
technologies for enterprise big data, has announced that javax.cache, a
caching standard for Java applications, has formally entered Draft
Review Stage under the Java Community Process.
The new standard provides a standardized approach to how Java
applications temporarily cache data-a critical factor for achieving big
data performance and scalability and a core technology within leading
in-memory solutions.
Without a standard caching mechanism for Java applications,
developers have been forced to create their own caching APIs,
significantly increasing coding time and costs.
"The javax.cache standard addresses a long overdue issue in Java
development," said Greg Luck, CTO of Terracotta. "This standard is
aligned with Terracotta's focus on technologies that deliver scale,
speed and simplicity for developers, applications and businesses. It's
exciting to see our work coming to fruition."
Now, with javax.cache, developers no longer have to modify the coding
from one proprietary API to another. Similarly, ISVs can leverage the
standard to introduce pluggable caching that supports multiple
implementations, rather than just a select few.
