Description
Terracotta Server Platform is an open source server platform that provides distributed in-memory data management for applications using Terracotta technologies such as Ehcache and TCStore. It enables clustered caching by allowing applications to connect to a Terracotta Server and store cache data across server-side resources. The platform can be deployed as a simple two-node tandem or expanded into a larger Terracotta Server Array for added scalability, performance, and failover protection. Terracotta Server helps teams manage large volumes of data in memory, making it useful for workloads that need fast access to shared cached data. Its key capabilities include high availability, configurable health monitoring, automatic node reconnection, and simplified capacity planning. The platform supports JDK 17 or higher and can be started from a local kit or Docker image. Developers can connect clustered Ehcache clients using Java or XML configuration and define server-side off-heap resources for cache storage. Commercially supported versions from IBM offer additional capabilities such as fast-restart persistence, advanced management, and security features. Terracotta Server Platform is a practical option for teams that want to extend Ehcache with distributed caching and improve application performance across clustered environments.
Description
Failover Clustering in Windows Server (and Azure Local) allows a collection of independent servers to collaborate, enhancing both availability and scalability for clustered roles, which were previously referred to as clustered applications and services. These interconnected nodes utilize a combination of hardware and software solutions, ensuring that if one node encounters a failure, another node seamlessly takes over its responsibilities through an automated failover mechanism. Continuous monitoring of clustered roles ensures that if they cease to function properly, they can be restarted or migrated to uphold uninterrupted service. Additionally, this feature includes support for Cluster Shared Volumes (CSVs), which create a cohesive, distributed namespace and enable reliable shared storage access across all nodes, thereby minimizing potential service interruptions. Common applications of Failover Clustering encompass high‑availability file shares, SQL Server instances, and Hyper‑V virtual machines. This functionality is available on Windows Server versions 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025, as well as within Azure Local environments, making it a versatile choice for organizations looking to enhance their system resilience. By leveraging Failover Clustering, organizations can ensure their critical applications remain available even in the event of hardware failures.
