04 Sep 2007 ObjectGrid is a part of the WebSphere Extended Development Data Grid
offering, but you can you install it as a standalone package as well. Learn the basics of installing and using this in-memory database
for your Java™ applications. You'll see how to set it up to use one or more machines,
and then walk through a series of sample applications that demonstrate its
capabilities.
Objectives - Step through the standalone installation process of the
WebSphere XD Data Grid (DG) ObjectGrid component, demonstrating ObjectGrid's simplicity and ease of installation.
- Develop, deploy, and run a simple standalone
application, which employs the ObjectGrid EntityManager API, in a single JVM.
-
Develop, install, and configure ObjectGrid as a standalone Java Platform
Standard Edition (JSE) application, independent from the WebSphere XD runtime.
-
Develop, deploy, and install ObjectGrid applications to an
ObjectGrid JSE cluster.
- Configure a JSE cluster of ObjectGrid servers; this cluster will
be composed of a catalog server process that maintains a catalog of the running
ObjectGrid servers and a cluster of two application container servers, which
will run a modified version of the ObjectGrid application that you will
initially develop and deploy to a single JVM.
- Deploy to WebSphere XD. Learn how to leverage
the management and monitoring infrastructure in WebSphere XD for ObjectGrid-enabled
applications.
- Learn how to construct more complex applications employing multiple
maps and complex queries.
See several example applications that are more
representative of real-world applications than the simple application used as an
example for the portions of the tutorial that deal with the deployment and
operational aspects of ObjectGrid.
Prerequisites
This tutorial assumes that you have some some basic knowledge of system
administration on either Microsoft® Windows® XP or UNIX®, and are capable of using
a simple IDE, such as Eclipse, to write and compile Java programs.
System requirements
The examples in this tutorial were developed using Windows XP Professional and SuSE Enterprise
Server 10 Linux, but can be recreated on any supported WebSphere Extended
Deployment operating system. Download the free trial version
of ObjectGrid, a feature of the Data Grid Component of WebSphere
Extended Deployment.
