Apache Ignite is a distributed, memory-first database with in-memory speed, ACID transactions, and SQL support across a cluster. It can serve as a caching layer, key-value store, or full database with native persistence and distributed computing capabilities.
Use cases
- speed up reads with an in-memory cache in front of a slow database
- run distributed SQL queries across a cluster
- store microservices state and session data
- process event streams in real time
- build an AI/ML feature store
- handle IoT and time-series data at scale
- run ACID transactions spanning multiple servers
- perform high-performance distributed computing
When to choose
- you need low-latency, in-memory data access at scale
- you want a distributed SQL database with ACID guarantees
- you need a caching layer plus native persistence in one system
- your workload involves real-time analytics, IoT, or event streaming
When to avoid
- you need a simple embedded database for a single-node app
- your dataset is small and a traditional RDBMS suffices
- you cannot operate a JVM-based cluster or manage distributed infrastructure
- you want a lightweight key-value store without clustering overhead
