EclipseStore 3 with GigaMap is Now Available

EclipseStore 3.0.0 is a breakthrough and one of the most significant releases ever, as it introduces the new, powerful GigaMap.

Introducing the GigaMap:

The GigaMap is a specialized collection aimed at optimizing performance and memory usage in EclipseStore. It utilizes off-heap bitmap indexing to facilitate lightning-fast searches and lazy loading of objects, eliminating the need for manual reference management.

• Off-Heap Bitmap Index: GigaMap employs the off-heap bitmap index concept to enable quick object lookups based on specific criteria.
• Automated Lazy-Loading: When an object is accessed for the first time, GigaMap effectively retrieves and loads it from the underlying storage, reducing memory usage and enhancing startup time.
• Transparent Integration: GigaMap effortlessly integrates with EclipseStore’s data model, ensuring ease of use and maintenance.
• Scalability: GigaMap can manage massive datasets due to its efficient indexing and lazy-loading mechanisms.

Troubleshooting:

The new storage graph analysis is an important feature to analyze the stored graph for errors and provides ways to recover. This includes an API to export the storage graphs structure without user data and an API to search that data for missing objects and objects’ parents.

Eclipse Data Grid:

While EclipseStore is a Java-native persistence layer for a single JVM or single-node application, Eclipse Data Grid enables you to run distributed EclipseStore applications in a cluster. Eclipse Data Grid is a new Eclipse open-source project that provides you with configuration files (software as code) to create and run an Eclipse Data Grid cluster in any Kubernetes environment. EclipseStore, as an ACID-compliant persistence, is a major feature and integral part of Eclipse Data Grid.
