Apache Ignite – In-Memory Data Fabric – With No Semantics

Filed under: Apache Ignite,Semantics,Topic Maps — Patrick Durusau @ 4:52 pm

I saw a tweet from the Apache Ignite project pointing to its contributors page: Start Contributing.

The documentation describes Apache Ignite™ as:

Apache Ignite™ In-Memory Data Fabric is a high-performance, integrated and distributed in-memory platform for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or flash-based technologies.

If you think that is impressive, here’s a block representation of Ignite:

apache-ignite

Or a more textual view:

You can view Ignite as a collection of independent, well-integrated, in-memory components geared to improve performance and scalability of your application. Some of these components include:

Imagine my surprise when as search on “semantics” said

No Results Found.”

Even without data, whose semantics could be documented, there should be hooks for documenting of the semantics of future data.

I’m not advocating Apache Ignite jury-rig some means of documenting the semantics of data and Ignite processes.

The need for semantic documentation varies what is sufficient for one case will be wholly inadequate for another. Not to mention that documentation and semantics, often require different skills than possessed by most developers.

What semantics do you need documented with your Apache Ignite installation?
