[ANNOUNCE] Apache Ignite 1.8.0 Released
The Apache Ignite Community is pleased to announce the release of Apache Ignite 1.8.0.
Apache Ignite In-Memory Data Fabric [1] 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.
The Fabric is a collection of independent and well integrated components some of which are the following:
Data Grid
Compute Grid
Streaming & CEP
Service Grid
Starting from version 1.8.0 this list is expanded with a new component named In-Memory SQL Grid [2]. In-Memory SQL Grid adds in-memory distributed database capabilities to Apache Ignite. It is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant and SQL ANSI-99 compliant. SQL Grid fully supports all SQL and DML commands including SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, MERGE and DELETE queries. The In-Memory SQL Grid allows you to interact with Ignite platform using JDBC or ODBC APIs without custom coding. This provides true cross-platform connectivity even from languages such as PHP and Ruby which are not natively supported by the project.
Apache Ignite 1.8.0 also includes Redis protocol support and support for .NET Entity Framework 2nd Level Cache and ASP.NET Session Caching. The full list of the changes can be found here [3].

Hi all
I have a comment about release notes. Transactions deadlock detection
was implemented in Apache Ignite 1.7. But this implementation is
limited by pessimistic transactions only and doesn't support
transactions on near caches.
In Apache Ignite 1.8 release implemented deadlock detection that
supports optimistic transactions and transactions on near caches. It
is useful feature and could be important for transactions users.

Do keep in mind that this is not a press release, so the format is different from what we're used to (I launched the "Have you met...?" series with Mahout[1] back in 2010 to great media interest: coverage within 24 hours).

The ASF asks: Have you met Apache Ignite?
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) has been recognized as a leading source for an array of Open Source software and tools that meet the demand for interoperable, adaptable, and sustainable solutions. The all-volunteer ASF develops, stewards, and incubates dozens of enterprise-grade Open Source projects that power mission-critical applications in financial services, aerospace, publishing, government, healthcare, research, infrastructure, and more. From Abdera to ZooKeeper, the demand for ASF's reliable, community-driven software continues to grow dramatically across many categories, including Cloud, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Mobile, and Big Data, where the Apache Hadoop ecosystem dominates the marketplace.
Did you know that numerous Fortune 500 enterprises depend on Apache Ignite’s in-memory "Fast Data" platform to process large-scale data sets in real-time, at orders of magnitude faster than traditional technologies?
We are pleased to showcase Apache Ignite, the high-performance In-Memory Data Fabric that provides in-memory data caching, partitioning, processing, and querying components.
Quick peek: Apache Ignite is an integrated and distributed In-Memory Data Fabric for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or flash technologies. It is designed to easily power both existing and new applications in a distributed, massively parallel architecture on affordable, industry-standard hardware.
Background: Originally created at GridGain as its flagship in-memory computing (IMC) platform, Ignite entered the Apache Incubator in September 2014 and graduated as an Apache Top-Level Project in August 2015.
Why Ignite: Apache Ignite addresses today's Fast Data needs by providing a comprehensive in-memory data fabric, which includes a data grid with SQL and transactional capabilities, in-memory streaming, an in-memory file system, and more.
Heavily benchmarked, Ignite has been built from the ground up to linearly scale to hundreds of nodes with strong semantics for data locality and affinity data routing to reduce redundant data noise. Ignite data grid is lightning fast and is one of the fastest implementations of transactional or atomic data in distributed clusters today.
Unlike other Big Data processing solutions, Apache Ignite treats RAM as a primary storage facility (as opposed to being used exclusively for processing). As such, Ignite's memory-first approach is more efficient and faster: with improved system indexes, reduced data fetch time, and no delays in a stream content processing, among other benefits.
Additionally --and unique to Apache Ignite-- its SQL Grid eliminates the need for painful and challenging migration from relational database to in-memory data grid (IMDG), alleviating the need for developers to have to rewrite SQL based code to IMDG’s native APIs. This means that developers can keep using existing applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with very little to no code modification. Ignite SQL Grid is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant, and SQL ANSI-99 compliant.
Using Apache Ignite, developers benefit from:
- Data Grid --replicate or partition data in memory within the cluster;
- In-Memory SQL Grid --add in-memory distributed database capabilities;
- Advanced Clustering --including logical cluster groups and auto-discover;
- ODBC Driver --select and modify data stored in a distributed cache;
- Compute Grid --distribute computations across cluster nodes;
- Service Grid --cluster-enable any service or data structure;
- Streaming & CEP --easily stream large volumes of data into Ignite; and
- Data Structures --distribute own data structure across the cluster.
To solve real-time business issues and meet application requirements for the highest performance and scale, Apache Ignite leverages and integrates a host of Apache projects including Spark, Hadoop, YARN, and Mesos.
Latest release: Apache Ignite v1.8 on 9 December 2016 under the Apache License v.2.0. More details can be found below and in the release notes.
@@What's under the hood: New in v1.8 is … (list 3-5 features/benefits … we can get technical with 0s and 1s here).

The ASF asks: Have you met Apache Ignite?
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) has been recognized as a leading source for an array of Open Source software and tools that meet the demand for interoperable, adaptable, and sustainable solutions. The all-volunteer ASF develops, stewards, and incubates dozens of enterprise-grade Open Source projects that power mission-critical applications in financial services, aerospace, publishing, government, healthcare, research, infrastructure, and more. From Abdera to ZooKeeper, the demand for ASF's reliable, community-driven software continues to grow dramatically across many categories, including Cloud, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Mobile, and Big Data, where the Apache Hadoop ecosystem dominates the marketplace.
Did you know that numerous Fortune 500 enterprises depend on Apache Ignite’s in-memory "Fast Data" platform to process large-scale data sets in real-time, at orders of magnitude faster than traditional technologies?
We are pleased to showcase Apache Ignite, the high-performance In-Memory Data Fabric that provides in-memory data caching, partitioning, processing, and querying components.
Quick peek: Apache Ignite is an integrated and distributed In-Memory Data Fabric for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or flash technologies. It is designed to easily power both existing and new applications in a distributed, massively parallel architecture on affordable, industry-standard hardware.
Background: Originally created at GridGain as its flagship in-memory computing (IMC) platform, Ignite entered the Apache Incubator in September 2014 and graduated as an Apache Top-Level Project in August 2015.
Why Ignite: Apache Ignite addresses today's Fast Data needs by providing a comprehensive in-memory data fabric, which includes a data grid with SQL and transactional capabilities, in-memory streaming, an in-memory file system, and more.
Heavily benchmarked, Ignite has been built from the ground up to linearly scale to hundreds of nodes with strong semantics for data locality and affinity data routing to reduce redundant data noise. Ignite data grid is lightning fast and is one of the fastest implementations of transactional or atomic data in distributed clusters today.
Unlike other Big Data processing solutions, Apache Ignite treats RAM as a primary storage facility (as opposed to being used exclusively for processing). As such, Ignite's memory-first approach is more efficient and faster: with improved system indexes, reduced data fetch time, and no delays in a stream content processing, among other benefits.
Additionally --and unique to Apache Ignite-- its SQL Grid eliminates the need for painful and challenging migration from relational database to in-memory data grid (IMDG), alleviating the need for developers to have to rewrite SQL based code to IMDG’s native APIs. This means that developers can keep using existing applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with very little to no code modification. Ignite SQL Grid is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant, and SQL ANSI-99 compliant.
Using Apache Ignite, developers benefit from:
- Data Grid --replicate or partition data in memory within the cluster;
- In-Memory SQL Grid --add in-memory distributed database capabilities;
- Advanced Clustering --including logical cluster groups and auto-discover;
- ODBC Driver --select and modify data stored in a distributed cache;
- Compute Grid --distribute computations across cluster nodes;
- Service Grid --cluster-enable any service or data structure;
- Streaming & CEP --easily stream large volumes of data into Ignite; and
- Data Structures --distribute own data structure across the cluster.
To solve real-time business issues and meet application requirements for the highest performance and scale, Apache Ignite leverages and integrates a host of Apache projects including Spark, Hadoop, YARN, and Mesos.
Latest release: Apache Ignite v1.8 on 9 December 2016 under the Apache License v.2.0. More details can be found below and in the release notes.
@@What's under the hood: New in v1.8 is … (list 3-5 features/benefits … we can get technical with 0s and 1s here).

You can use any blogging engine you like. After the blog post is ready notify the community and Prachi will send your material to dzone.com and when it’s accepted there we will public it on Ignite’s blogging page (https://ignite.apache.org/blogs.html).
As for the format, I would suggest making a quick walk-through guidance including code snippets and showing how to connect to the cluster from Python or Ruby (whatever you like most) and work with it. You can do something like I did for PHPhttps://dzone.com/articles/apache-ignite-enables-full-fledged-sql-support-for

The ASF asks: Have you met Apache Ignite?
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) has been recognized as a leading source for an array of Open Source software and tools that meet the demand for interoperable, adaptable, and sustainable solutions. The all-volunteer ASF develops, stewards, and incubates dozens of enterprise-grade Open Source projects that power mission-critical applications in financial services, aerospace, publishing, government, healthcare, research, infrastructure, and more. From Abdera to ZooKeeper, the demand for ASF's reliable, community-driven software continues to grow dramatically across many categories, including Cloud, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Mobile, and Big Data, where the Apache Hadoop ecosystem dominates the marketplace.
Did you know that numerous Fortune 500 enterprises depend on Apache Ignite’s in-memory "Fast Data" platform to process large-scale data sets in real-time, at orders of magnitude faster than traditional technologies?
We are pleased to showcase Apache Ignite, the high-performance In-Memory Data Fabric that provides in-memory data caching, partitioning, processing, and querying components.
Quick peek: Apache Ignite is an integrated and distributed In-Memory Data Fabric for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or flash technologies. It is designed to easily power both existing and new applications in a distributed, massively parallel architecture on affordable, industry-standard hardware.
Background: Originally created at GridGain as its flagship in-memory computing (IMC) platform, Ignite entered the Apache Incubator in September 2014 and graduated as an Apache Top-Level Project in August 2015.
Why Ignite: Apache Ignite addresses today's Fast Data needs by providing a comprehensive in-memory data fabric, which includes a data grid with SQL and transactional capabilities, in-memory streaming, an in-memory file system, and more.
Heavily benchmarked, Ignite has been built from the ground up to linearly scale to hundreds of nodes with strong semantics for data locality and affinity data routing to reduce redundant data noise. Ignite data grid is lightning fast and is one of the fastest implementations of transactional or atomic data in distributed clusters today.
Unlike other Big Data processing solutions, Apache Ignite treats RAM as a primary storage facility (as opposed to being used exclusively for processing). As such, Ignite's memory-first approach is more efficient and faster: with improved system indexes, reduced data fetch time, and no delays in a stream content processing, among other benefits.
Additionally --and unique to Apache Ignite-- its SQL Grid eliminates the need for painful and challenging migration from relational database to in-memory data grid (IMDG), alleviating the need for developers to have to rewrite SQL based code to IMDG’s native APIs. This means that developers can keep using existing applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with very little to no code modification. Ignite SQL Grid is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant, and SQL ANSI-99 compliant.
Using Apache Ignite, developers benefit from:
- Data Grid --replicate or partition data in memory within the cluster;
- In-Memory SQL Grid --add in-memory distributed database capabilities;
- Advanced Clustering --including logical cluster groups and auto-discover;
- ODBC Driver --select and modify data stored in a distributed cache;
- Compute Grid --distribute computations across cluster nodes;
- Service Grid --cluster-enable any service or data structure;
- Streaming & CEP --easily stream large volumes of data into Ignite; and
- Data Structures --distribute own data structure across the cluster.
To solve real-time business issues and meet application requirements for the highest performance and scale, Apache Ignite leverages and integrates a host of Apache projects including Spark, Hadoop, YARN, and Mesos.
Latest release: Apache Ignite v1.8 on 9 December 2016 under the Apache License v.2.0. More details can be found below and in the release notes.
@@What's under the hood: New in v1.8 is … (list 3-5 features/benefits … we can get technical with 0s and 1s here).

The ASF asks: Have you met Apache Ignite?
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) has been recognized as a leading source for an array of Open Source software and tools that meet the demand for interoperable, adaptable, and sustainable solutions. The all-volunteer ASF develops, stewards, and incubates dozens of enterprise-grade Open Source projects that power mission-critical applications in financial services, aerospace, publishing, government, healthcare, research, infrastructure, and more. From Abdera to ZooKeeper, the demand for ASF's reliable, community-driven software continues to grow dramatically across many categories, including Cloud, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Mobile, and Big Data, where the Apache Hadoop ecosystem dominates the marketplace.
Did you know that numerous Fortune 500 enterprises depend on Apache Ignite’s in-memory "Fast Data" platform to process large-scale data sets in real-time, at orders of magnitude faster than traditional technologies?
We are pleased to showcase Apache Ignite, the high-performance In-Memory Data Fabric that provides in-memory data caching, partitioning, processing, and querying components.
Quick peek: Apache Ignite is an integrated and distributed In-Memory Data Fabric for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or flash technologies. It is designed to easily power both existing and new applications in a distributed, massively parallel architecture on affordable, industry-standard hardware.
Background: Originally created at GridGain as its flagship in-memory computing (IMC) platform, Ignite entered the Apache Incubator in September 2014 and graduated as an Apache Top-Level Project in August 2015.
Why Ignite: Apache Ignite addresses today's Fast Data needs by providing a comprehensive in-memory data fabric, which includes a data grid with SQL and transactional capabilities, in-memory streaming, an in-memory file system, and more.
Heavily benchmarked, Ignite has been built from the ground up to linearly scale to hundreds of nodes with strong semantics for data locality and affinity data routing to reduce redundant data noise. Ignite data grid is lightning fast and is one of the fastest implementations of transactional or atomic data in distributed clusters today.
Unlike other Big Data processing solutions, Apache Ignite treats RAM as a primary storage facility (as opposed to being used exclusively for processing). As such, Ignite's memory-first approach is more efficient and faster: with improved system indexes, reduced data fetch time, and no delays in a stream content processing, among other benefits.

This means that developers can keep using existing applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with very little to no code modification. Ignite SQL Grid is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant, and SQL ANSI-99 compliant.
Using Apache Ignite, developers benefit from:

- In-Memory SQL Grid --add in-memory distributed database capabilities;
- Advanced Clustering --including logical cluster groups and auto-discover;
- ODBC Driver --select and modify data stored in a distributed cache;
- Compute Grid --distribute computations across cluster nodes;
- Service Grid --cluster-enable any service or data structure;
- Streaming & CEP --easily stream large volumes of data into Ignite; and
- Data Structures --distribute own data structure across the cluster.
To solve real-time business issues and meet application requirements for the highest performance and scale, Apache Ignite leverages and integrates a host of Apache projects including Spark, Hadoop, YARN, and Mesos.
Latest release: Apache Ignite v1.8 on 9 December 2016 under the Apache License v.2.0. More details can be found below and in the release notes.

Hello, everyone --as promised, below is the draft so far. Here's hoping I understood everything correctly <g>
Kindly note that we'll need to fill in the "@@" under the hood section on v1.8 (this part can be technical and developer-focused, whilst the rest of the document should be tech-lite = understandable for journalists who are geeky but not technologists). I'll be happy to provide editing credentials on the googledoc to those requesting it.
Do keep in mind that this is not a press release, so the format is different from what we're used to (I launched the "Have you met...?" series with Mahout[1] back in 2010 to great media interest: coverage within 24 hours). We can also work together on establishing a template for you to use for future project announcements.
As always, comments/corrections/additions welcome!
Thanks so much,Sally

The ASF asks: Have you met Apache Ignite?
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) has been recognized as a leading source for an array of Open Source software and tools that meet the demand for interoperable, adaptable, and sustainable solutions. The all-volunteer ASF develops, stewards, and incubates dozens of enterprise-grade Open Source projects that power mission-critical applications in financial services, aerospace, publishing, government, healthcare, research, infrastructure, and more. From Abdera to ZooKeeper, the demand for ASF's reliable, community-driven software continues to grow dramatically across many categories, including Cloud, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Mobile, and Big Data, where the Apache Hadoop ecosystem dominates the marketplace.
Did you know that numerous Fortune 500 enterprises depend on Apache Ignite’s in-memory "Fast Data" platform to process large-scale data sets in real-time, at orders of magnitude faster than traditional technologies?
We are pleased to showcase Apache Ignite, the high-performance In-Memory Data Fabric that provides in-memory data caching, partitioning, processing, and querying components.
Quick peek: Apache Ignite is an integrated and distributed In-Memory Data Fabric for computing and transacting on large-scale data sets in real-time, orders of magnitude faster than possible with traditional disk-based or flash technologies. It is designed to easily power both existing and new applications in a distributed, massively parallel architecture on affordable, industry-standard hardware.
Background: Originally created at GridGain as its flagship in-memory computing (IMC) platform, Ignite entered the Apache Incubator in September 2014 and graduated as an Apache Top-Level Project in August 2015.
Why Ignite: Apache Ignite addresses today's Fast Data needs by providing a comprehensive in-memory data fabric, which includes a data grid with SQL and transactional capabilities, in-memory streaming, an in-memory file system, and more.
Heavily benchmarked, Ignite has been built from the ground up to linearly scale to hundreds of nodes with strong semantics for data locality and affinity data routing to reduce redundant data noise. Ignite data grid is lightning fast and is one of the fastest implementations of transactional or atomic data in distributed clusters today.
Unlike other Big Data processing solutions, Apache Ignite treats RAM as a primary storage facility (as opposed to being used exclusively for processing). As such, Ignite's memory-first approach is more efficient and faster: with improved system indexes, reduced data fetch time, and no delays in a stream content processing, among other benefits.
Additionally --and unique to Apache Ignite-- its SQL Grid eliminates the need for painful and challenging migration from relational database to in-memory data grid (IMDG), alleviating the need for developers to have to rewrite SQL based code to IMDG’s native APIs. This means that developers can keep using existing applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with very little to no code modification. Ignite SQL Grid is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant, and SQL ANSI-99 compliant.
Using Apache Ignite, developers benefit from:
- Data Grid --replicate or partition data in memory within the cluster;
- In-Memory SQL Grid --add in-memory distributed database capabilities;
- Advanced Clustering --including logical cluster groups and auto-discover;
- ODBC Driver --select and modify data stored in a distributed cache;
- Compute Grid --distribute computations across cluster nodes;
- Service Grid --cluster-enable any service or data structure;
- Streaming & CEP --easily stream large volumes of data into Ignite; and
- Data Structures --distribute own data structure across the cluster.
To solve real-time business issues and meet application requirements for the highest performance and scale, Apache Ignite leverages and integrates a host of Apache projects including Spark, Hadoop, YARN, and Mesos.
Latest release: Apache Ignite v1.8 on 9 December 2016 under the Apache License v.2.0. More details can be found below and in the release notes.

Hi folks --just a quick heads-up that I haven't forgotten about you!
I issued three press releases + the January "Success at Apache" this week, so there's been a little extra press activity than usual.
I'm aiming to get the draft to you today...otherwise over the weekend.
I apologize for the delay and thank you for your continued patience.
Warmly,

Thanks, Denis. Hello, everyone!
Indeed, I think releasing a "highlight" announcement makes sense here, and I'll be happy to work with you over the next week or so to get that drafted.
And thanks in advance, Roman Shtykh, for acting as project spokesperson in your role as release manager. Participation from the community at-large is greatly appreciated!

Igniters, PMC members had a talk with Sally Khudairi who represents ASF Marketing & Publicity group. Sally, thanks a lot for finding a time to jump on the call.
One of the main topics of the call was our latest 1.8.0 release. It was agreed that Sally would help the community to prepare an additional announcement so that we can expand awareness of the following features:
- In-Memory SQL Grid. Sally, hope that I could convey the main benefit of this feature to you. Just in case, here is my recent blog post [1] where it’s explained how PHP users can leverage from this new component.
- Redis protocol support. Roman S., could you find a time and write a blog post about it or recount the main benefits that Sally can include in the announcement referring to you?
- .NET features. Already well described in this post [2]. Just in case, Pavel T. will be able to provide more details if needed.
Also we discussed marketing related activities, issues and approaches related to Apache Ignite in general. At the moment community members maintain the following sources that increase awareness of Ignite:
- Blogs: https://ignite.apache.org/blogs.html
- News: https://ignite.apache.org/news.html
- Twitter: https://twitter.com/ApacheIgnite
I will deep dive into this topic the next year relying on you, Igniters, and Sally trying to find a way to get all we can from existed channels as well as implementing other approaches.

Ideally there will be other members of the PMC on the call as well, so we can discuss possible ways to help the project with outreach strategy and tactics.
Just so you know, I've worked with the GridGain PR/Comms team (Brigit, Samantha, Elyce) on Ignite through the incubation process, as well as with GridGain announcements (to ensure that they are in alignment with ASF guidelines), so it'll be a good idea to loop them in at some point if they'll be providing a supporting role to the project. I spoke with Elyce last week about how Apache projects promote themselves.
Do let me know what time(s) work best for you (I'm on UTC -5, with flexibility). Ideally we can do a conference call; otherwise Skype is do-able as well.

Hi Sally,
Thanks for a prompt reply.
I would be happy to have a call with you tomorrow or in the beginning of the next year to describe everything in the details. Please let me know the time that works for you and the way you prefer to talk (Skype, phone call, etc.). My timezone is PST and, just in case, I located in Foster City, CA.
In the meanwhile, the significance of the feature is the following.
Apache Ignite is an in-memory data grid (IMDG). As all other IMDGs it’s implemented as a distributed key-value storage [1]. The benefit of such an implementation is that a solution/application that works on top of an IMDG can scale out easily gaining significant performance improvements. However, it requires application developers to re-implement existed solutions/applications that usually work with relational databases by means of SQL language. Such a migration from a relational database to the IMDG can be painful because the developers have to rewrite SQL based code to IMDG’s native APIs.
However, with Apache Ignite SQL Grid feature [2] this painful and challenging migration can be avoided in general. The developers can keep using existed applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with no or minor code modification.
All this means that with Apache Ignite the developers can benefit from both horizontal scalability, distributed computations [3], real-time streaming [4] supported by IMDGs and SQL as the main querying language. To my knowledge, Apache Ignite is the only data grid that supports this combination and this product belongs to Apache Foundation ;)
Hope this makes things much clearer to you.

Of course: we're happy to see what we can do.
Help me understand the significance of this feature --"not unusual" confuses me somewhat, plus as a non-technologist, it would be great to see how we can position this for the media to take note.
Perhaps we can connect over the next few days or early new year to sort this out?
Cheers and chat soon,Sally

I’m reaching you out on behalf of Apache Ignite community. Recently our community did the breakthrough releasing the support of DML (Data Modification Language) that works on top of our in-memory data grid which is not usual for products of such kind. The feature might be interested for those who still work with conventional relational databases and can’t switch to a in-memory data grid due to a lack of features like DML.
Is there any chance to make a wider announcement with your help? More details about the DML support are below
Starting from version 1.8.0 this list is expanded with a new component named In-Memory SQL Grid [2]. In-Memory SQL Grid adds in-memory distributed database capabilities to Apache Ignite. It is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant and SQL ANSI-99 compliant. SQL Grid fully supports all SQL and DML commands including SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, MERGE and DELETE queries. The In-Memory SQL Grid allows you to interact with Ignite platform using JDBC or ODBC APIs without custom coding. This provides true cross-platform connectivity even from languages such as PHP and Ruby which are not natively supported by the project.

The Apache Ignite Community is pleased to announce the release of Apache Ignite 1.8.0.
Apache Ignite In-Memory Data Fabric [1] 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.
The Fabric is a collection of independent and well integrated components some of which are the following:
- Data Grid
- Compute Grid
- Streaming & CEP
- Service Grid
Starting from version 1.8.0 this list is expanded with a new component named In-Memory SQL Grid [2]. In-Memory SQL Grid adds in-memory distributed database capabilities to Apache Ignite. It is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant and SQL ANSI-99 compliant. SQL Grid fully supports all SQL and DML commands including SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, MERGE and DELETE queries. The In-Memory SQL Grid allows you to interact with Ignite platform using JDBC or ODBC APIs without custom coding. This provides true cross-platform connectivity even from languages such as PHP and Ruby which are not natively supported by the project. Apache Ignite 1.8.0 also includes Redis protocol support and support for .NET Entity Framework 2nd Level Cache and ASP.NET Session Caching. The full list of the changes can be found here [3].
Please visit this page if you’re ready to try the release out:https://ignite.apache.org/ download.cgi
Please let us know [4] if you encounter any problems.

News: https://ignite.apache.org/news.html <https://ignite.apache.org/news.html>
Twitter: https://twitter.com/ApacheIgnite
I will deep dive into this topic the next year relying on you, Igniters, and Sally trying to find a way to get all we can from existed channels as well as implementing other approaches.

>>> In the meanwhile, the significance of the feature is the following.
>>>
>>> Apache Ignite is an in-memory data grid (IMDG). As all other IMDGs it’s implemented as a distributed key-value storage [1]. The benefit of such an implementation is that a solution/application that works on top of an IMDG can scale out easily gaining significant performance improvements. However, it requires application developers to re-implement existed solutions/applications that usually work with relational databases by means of SQL language. Such a migration from a relational database to the IMDG can be painful because the developers have to rewrite SQL based code to IMDG’s native APIs.
>>>
>>> However, with Apache Ignite SQL Grid feature [2] this painful and challenging migration can be avoided in general. The developers can keep using existed applications and tools written for relational databases and based on SQL language with no or minor code modification.
>>>
>>> All this means that with Apache Ignite the developers can benefit from both horizontal scalability, distributed computations [3], real-time streaming [4] supported by IMDGs and SQL as the main querying language. To my knowledge, Apache Ignite is the only data grid that supports this combination and this product belongs to Apache Foundation ;)

Recently our community did the breakthrough releasing the support of DML (Data Modification Language) that works on top of our in-memory data grid which is not usual for products of such kind. The feature might be interested for those who still work with conventional relational databases and can’t switch to a in-memory data grid due to a lack of features like DML.

It is horizontally scalable, fault tolerant and SQL ANSI-99 compliant. SQL Grid fully supports all SQL and DML commands including SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, MERGE and DELETE queries. The In-Memory SQL Grid allows you to interact with Ignite platform using JDBC or ODBC APIs without custom coding. This provides true cross-platform connectivity even from languages such as PHP and Ruby which are not natively supported by the project.
