Hazelcast, an emerging in-memory computing leader, extends its solution coverage with Hazelcast Cloud.Until now, Hazelcast sells two products: IMDG aka In-Memory DataGrid and Jet to be deployed on-premises.
Designed to deliver very fast performance with very low data access latency, IMDG is now a recognized well adopted product for high demanding applications, we can say business applications with HPC-like constraints. Jet, more recent, targets stream and batch needs.
With its cloud flavor, Hazelcast now offers a real answer to enterprises wishing to run business applications in the cloud. As said by Kelly Herrell, CEO of the company, a few days ago when The IT Press Tour met the team: "latency is the new downtime and microseconds matter".
This new offering is presented in 3 editions: Hazelcast Cloud (FREE), Hazelcast Cloud and Hazelcast Cloud Dedicated. The FREE option is designed for test and development, and the paid option, based on same technology, adds always-on status, higher memory limits and of course customer support. AWS is available now, Azure and GCP will be released before the end of the year. These two editions are operated by Hazelcast as a managed service. The last product iteration - Hazelcast Cloud Dedicated - is a reserved for private cloud deployment but configured and maintained by Hazelcast and should be appear mid-year 2019. The cloud offering leverages 3 components: IMDG, Kubernetes and Docker. Hazelcast seems to engage a direct competition with its close competitor GridGain and this one announced its cloud option last January.
