An ObjectGrid can be deployed into two types of environments: local or distributed. The configuration that is necessary depends on the type of deployment environment.
A local ObjectGrid runs within a single Java virtual machine (JVM), and therefore, is not replicated.
A distributed ObjectGrid runs across a set of JVMs. With this configuration, you can use data replication and partitioning. A distributed environment can be further classified as either a dynamic or static deployment topology. In a dynamic deployment topology, servers can be added as needed. In a static deployment topology, servers must be preconfigured. After the static deployment topology is running, no new servers can be added without restarting the entire distributed ObjectGrid environment.
Each type of environment has its own configuration requirements. Both local and distributed environments require an ObjectGrid XML file or an equivalent programmatic configuration. Deploying a distributed environment requires additional configuration. For a dynamic distributed environment, the deployment policy XML file is required. For a static distributed environment, the cluster XML file is required.
