Our user interface uses Oracle Coherence cache in the middle office space in an investment bank. Our UI serves to display as well as operate on data. All data is stored in Oracle DB, but obviously, we need caches to boost performance. Hitting a DB every time new information is necessary is just too much.
  • I think it is pretty robust. Doesn't break.
  • A very sophisticated failover logic. Data rarely gets lost.
  • Highly configurable depending on how frequently and quickly data needs to be retrieved.
  • I can't really come up with too many flaws, but possibly a bit expensive considering there are good open source caches like Ehcache.
It literally all boils down to the budget a team has. Nowadays, even investment banks look for every opportunity to cut cost. Oracle Coherence is a pretty robust and highly configurable cache application that every team should use if they can afford. If they can't, then open source code is their answer.

  • It does serve its purpose well: being a robust cache solution that provides faster data access to our applications.
  • Regarding ROI, it all depends on a trade-off between cost, performance, robustness and support. Each team/company has to decide.
  • Ehcache
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 about Ehcache just because it is open source. But may consider choosing Oracle coherence depending on the budget.

It is used organization-wide and we also have separate Oracle Coherence expertise department to help users of Coherence. The Oracle in-memory cache solution allows to make more reliable and robust applications and services for our business. In my particular project, the Coherence cache provides the performance we look for while calculations are being made. Without Coherence we would not be able to meet timings in both end of day (EOD) and intraday calculations.
  • Fast in-memory cache.
  • Load balancing in clustered configuration.
  • Flexibly configurable.
  • Easily interacts with database.
  • Configuration difficulties (because of flexibility I suppose).
  • Weak logging (hard to trace and resolve problems).

The best case is when you have a huge amount of static (rarely changed) data. For example if you have end of day calculations you can load all static data into the cache and operate them.

The inappropriate case from my point of view is to put data in the cache and ask it to sync that data to a database.

  • Better performance allows us to onboard more clients
  • Decom few mainframes that were needed to handle lots of DB queries
  • Better customer service with intraday calculations ability.
  • TIBCO DataSynapse GridServer

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.
