[Apache Geode](http://geode.apache.org/) is
a data management platform that provides real-time, consistent access to
data-intensive applications throughout widely distributed cloud architectures.
Apache Geode pools memory, CPU, network resources, and optionally local disk
across multiple processes to manage application objects and behavior. It uses
dynamic replication and data partitioning techniques to implement high
availability, improved performance, scalability, and fault tolerance. In
addition to being a distributed data container, Apache Geode is an in-memory
data management system that provides reliable asynchronous event notifications
and guaranteed message delivery.
Apache Geode is a mature, robust technology originally developed by GemStone
Systems. Commercially available as GemFire™, it was first deployed in the
financial sector as the transactional, low-latency data engine used in Wall
Street trading platforms. Today Apache Geode technology is used by hundreds of
enterprise customers for high-scale business applications that must meet low
latency and 24x7 availability requirements.
You can download Apache Geode from the
[website](https://geode.apache.org/releases/), run a Docker
[image](https://hub.docker.com/r/apachegeode/geode/), or install with
[Homebrew](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/apache-geode) on OSX. Application developers
can load dependencies from [Maven
Central](https://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cg%3A%22org.apache.geode%22).
Maven
```xml
org.apache.geode
geode-core
$VERSION
```
Gradle
```groovy
dependencies {
compile "org.apache.geode:geode-core:$VERSION"
}
```
## Main Concepts and Components
_Caches_ are an abstraction that describe a node in an Apache Geode distributed
system.
Within each cache, you define data _regions_. Data regions are analogous to
tables in a relational database and manage data in a distributed fashion as
name/value pairs. A _replicated_ region stores identical copies of the data on
each cache member of a distributed system. A _partitioned_ region spreads the
data among cache members. After the system is configured, client applications
can access the distributed data in regions without knowledge of the underlying
system architecture. You can define listeners to receive notifications when
data has changed, and you can define expiration criteria to delete obsolete
data in a region.
_Locators_ provide clients with both discovery and server load balancing
services. Clients are configured with locator information, and the locators
maintain a dynamic list of member servers. The locators provide clients with
connection information to a server.
Apache Geode includes the following features:
* Combines redundancy, replication, and a "shared nothing" persistence
architecture to deliver fail-safe reliability and performance.
* Horizontally scalable to thousands of cache members, with multiple cache
topologies to meet different enterprise needs. The cache can be
distributed across multiple computers.
* Asynchronous and synchronous cache update propagation.
* Delta propagation distributes only the difference between old and new
versions of an object (delta) instead of the entire object, resulting in
significant distribution cost savings.
* Reliable asynchronous event notifications and guaranteed message delivery
through optimized, low latency distribution layer.
* Data awareness and real-time business intelligence. If data changes as
you retrieve it, you see the changes immediately.
* Integration with Spring Framework to speed and simplify the development
of scalable, transactional enterprise applications.
* JTA compliant transaction support.
* Cluster-wide configurations that can be persisted and exported to other
clusters.
* Remote cluster management through HTTP.
* REST APIs for REST-enabled application development.
* Rolling upgrades may be possible, but they will be subject to any
limitations imposed by new features.
## Building this Release from Source
See [BUILDING.md](./BUILDING.md) for
instructions on how to build the project.
## Running Tests
See [TESTING.md](./TESTING.md) for
instructions on how to run tests.
Geode requires installation of JDK version 1.8. After installing Apache Geode,
start a locator and server:
```console
$ gfsh
gfsh> start locator
gfsh> start server
```
Create a region:
```console
gfsh> create region --name=hello --type=REPLICATE
```
Write a client application (this example uses a [Gradle](https://gradle.org)
build script):
_build.gradle_
```groovy
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'application'
mainClassName = 'HelloWorld'
repositories { mavenCentral() }
dependencies {
compile 'org.apache.geode:geode-core:1.4.0'
runtime 'org.slf4j:slf4j-log4j12:1.7.24'
}
```
_src/main/java/HelloWorld.java_
```java
import java.util.Map;
import org.apache.geode.cache.Region;
import org.apache.geode.cache.client.*;
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ClientCache cache = new ClientCacheFactory()
.addPoolLocator("localhost", 10334)
.create();
Region region = cache
.createClientRegionFactory(ClientRegionShortcut.CACHING_PROXY)
.create("hello");
region.put("1", "Hello");
region.put("2", "World");
for (Map.Entry entry : region.entrySet()) {
System.out.format("key = %s, value = %s\n", entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());
}
cache.close();
}
}
```
Build and run the `HelloWorld` example:
```console
$ gradle run
```
The application will connect to the running cluster, create a local cache, put
some data in the cache, and print the cached data to the console:
```console
key = 1, value = Hello
key = 2, value = World
```
Finally, shutdown the Geode server and locator:
```console
gfsh> shutdown --include-locators=true
```
For more information see the [Geode
Examples](https://github.com/apache/geode-examples) repository or the
[documentation](https://geode.apache.org/docs/).
Apache Geode applications can be written in these client technologies:
* Java [client](https://geode.apache.org/docs/guide/18/topologies_and_comm/cs_configuration/chapter_overview.html)
or [peer](https://geode.apache.org/docs/guide/18/topologies_and_comm/p2p_configuration/chapter_overview.html)
* [REST](https://geode.apache.org/docs/guide/18/rest_apps/chapter_overview.html)
* [Memcached](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GEODE/Moving+from+memcached+to+gemcached)
The following libraries are available external to the Apache Geode project:
* [Spring Data GemFire](https://projects.spring.io/spring-data-gemfire/)
* [Spring Cache](https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/html/cache.html)
* [Python](https://github.com/gemfire/py-gemfire-rest)
