VMware Tanzu GemFire, part of Tanzu Data Services

High-performance application cache and database

VMware Tanzu GemFire is a distributed, in-memory, key-value store that performs read and write operations at fast speeds. It offers highly available parallel message queues, continuous availability, and an event-driven architecture you can scale dynamically, with no downtime. As data size requirements increase to support high-performance, real-time apps, Tanzu GemFire can scale linearly.

Predictable low latency

Even during huge peaks in concurrent access, users can count on predictable low latency because of the in-memory, horizontally scalable architecture of Tanzu GemFire.

Cloud ready

Available as a service on the Tanzu Platform, for on-demand access to Tanzu GemFire’s high-performance, highly available, event-driven data grid. Tanzu GemFire is deployable on the Tanzu Platform, and soon on any Kubernetes.

Superior performance

Tanzu GemFire was designed for responding to large volumes of concurrent requests while maintaining low latency and high throughput.

Integration with Spring

Spring Data Geode and Spring Boot for Apache Geode simplify how developers need to work with Tanzu GemFire.

Security that’s built in, not bolted on

Tanzu GemFire enables authentication and authorization using oAuth 2 standard. And Tanzu GemFire supports Transport Layer Security(TLS), so all dataflows between Tanzu GemFire and the platform are encrypted.

Multisite replication

Use Tanzu GemFire’s Multi Geo (Cross Data Center or Multi Data Center) replication capability for active-active configuration. For disaster recovery, deploy Tanzu GemFire across sites in an active-passive setup.

High availability and business continuity

Tanzu GemFire’s in-memory data replication and a shared-nothing persistence architecture supports more downtime from node failures, datacenter-wide outages, or software upgrades. Tanzu GemFire nodes automatically fail over in the event of a node-level outage, while its highly efficient WAN replication protocol enables multi-datacenter deployment for business continuity.
