Chose Oracle Coherence
Oracle Coherence is more straightforward to deploy than IBM Datapower ExtremeScale. We used ExtremeScale previously in the form of their Datapower caching appliances. The firmware was difficult to upgrade in the appliances, and we had trouble getting them patched …

Chose Oracle Coherence
Coherence kicks Redis's butt when it comes to performance and feature set. However, it lags far behind in terms of market penetration and cloud readiness.

Chose Oracle Coherence
I did not get involved with selecting Oracle Coherence. It was already implemented when I joined the team. As I mentioned, Ehcache is probably the most well-known competitor and it is an open source application. If I were to build a new application now, I would think first …

Chose Oracle Coherence
DataSynapse GridServer has the same cache functionality connected with a grid distributed application deployment platform. It provides all the necessary tools to configure and manage these applications.
On the otherhand Oracle Coherence has more a flexible configuration and …

Comparison of Database Administration features of Oracle Coherence
Oracle Coherence can be used to solve latency problems by caching data near the application tier. In-memory performance helps to reduce data contention, thus improving application response time. Oracle Coherence does a great job at scaling linearly and can do so dynamically. Oracle Coherence can replicate data so it can be part of a disaster recovery solution. One thing that is often overlooked with elastic caches is their ability to analyze data in memory, leveraging the processing power of the data grid. This is something Oracle Coherence does exceptionally well. Oracle Coherence also provided event handling capabilities to allow applications to respond to events triggered by transactions.

Oracle Coherence support team is responsive and knowledgeable. We contacted them to ask a couple of design questions about how we were setting up Oracle Coherence based on how we used IBM's Datapower Extreme Scale. They were able to guide us so that we got the design correct the first time and didn't have to go back and re-architect our design later.

DataSynapse GridServer has the same cache functionality connected with a grid distributed application deployment platform. It provides all the necessary tools to configure and manage these applications. On the otherhand Oracle Coherence has more a flexible configuration and better performance. Also the Oracle configuration and monitoring tools are more convenient and informative than the DataSynapse ones.

In my current project, it is yet to be decided as we are on the way to make it live for users. But I am sure it will be an added value to obtain timely calculations.
