Clustered Caching with Tangosol Coherence Training Course

The course introduces technologies that are used to gain performance improvements with high availability and is appropriate for the student looking for caching solutions that will yield exceptional performance even under heavy load, unlimited predictable and economical scalability even with explosive growth, and continuous availability even in the event of server or database failure. It explores the theory of caching and various caching techniques. It identifies the reasons why performance may actually deteriorate rather than improve, and the keys to attaining desired results. This Tangosol Coherence course also provides an in-depth review of all of Coherence capabilities, and clarifies when and how each of the different caching options and features should be used. We examine scenarios that indicate an optimal deployment of the product. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to take full advantage of all of the available functionality within Coherence, and to use it to achieve exceptional data caching performance for highly demanding data intensive and transactional applications.
