Today's developers are quickly adopting distributed caching for their applications running on server farms and compute grids. Distributed caching can dramatically improve your application's performance by eliminating repeated round trips to the database server. It also can make session-state and other fast-changing data immediately available to all servers in the farm or the compute grid.

ScaleOut StateServer^® is a production-proven distributed caching solution that delivers fast, scalable performance and high availability. Give your application a boost! Here are some of the benefits you can expect:

• Fast access that outperforms all other "out-of-process" storage alternatives and approaches the speed of "in-process" storage. Look at these recent test results for 100KB datasets:
  
  
  

• Scalable performance and capacity that increase without bottlenecks as your server farm or compute grid grows. The following test results demonstrate ScaleOut StateServer's linear scalability.
  
  
  

• Dramatically simplified deployment compared to other distributed caching products due to a fully integrated caching architecture.
• Easy to manage because of ScaleOut StateServer's proprietary self-organizing and self-healing technology.
• Significantly lower cost for distributed caching than using database servers.
• More efficient and powerful use of your server farm since cached data is accessible from any server.
• Easy to maintain servers by taking them offline and putting them back online at will without data loss.
• Transparent caching of session objects in Microsoft ASP.NET applications.
• Comprehensive APIs that provide access for all Microsoft .NET languages plus C, C++, and Java.
• Advanced capabilities such as parallel query, backing store access, object browser, and optional map/reduce-style data analysis, which set ScaleOut StateServer apart from the competition.

For those developers only needing to store ASP.NET session-state, ScaleOut SessionServer™ provides the same fast access and scalable storage capabilities as ScaleOut StateServer without the development APIs. SessionServer is fully transparent to ASP.NET applications and requires only a one-line configuration change to make it fully operational.

ScaleOut GeoServer^® extends ScaleOut Software's distributed caching across multiple, geographically distributed data centers by replicating stored objects between ScaleOut StateServer caches running at different sites. Now you can protect against loss of data due to a site-wide outage. GeoServer uses scalable and highly available connections that take full advantage of all servers in each farm and deliver the highest possible performance.

ScaleOut StateServer Grid Computing Edition™ takes distributed caching to the next level by enabling applications to easily execute user-defined "map/reduce" methods in parallel on a selected set of cached objects and combine the results. This capability provides a fast and powerful execution layer for parallel mining and analysis of cached data. Best of all, developers simply write two intuitive methods as if programming on a single machine, and ScaleOut StateServer transparently combines the power of multiple machines, processors, and cores.

All together, ScaleOut StateServer and ScaleOut GeoServer provide the ideal distributed caching solution for financial services, e-commerce, and other mission-critical applications. These breakthrough products finally eliminate the bottlenecks, and they make distributed caching easy to deploy and use. ScaleOut StateServer and ScaleOut GeoServer open the door to the next generation of scalable and highly available distributed caching.
