ZeroPoint ZCache Features Overview - Technical Support

ZCache

ZCache is a core technology developed to greatly improve application and web services access to data. Whether your application is a web deployed applet, or an Internet/LAN based stand alone application, ZCache provides powerful options that you can leverage to build higher performance products more quickly than ever before.

This product offers extraordinary caching, and simplified methods for accessing data, simultaneous access to multiple database engines, and a high speed single access point for ASP (Application Service Provider) applications.

ZCache not only caches data, but when a write occurs, writes the data to in memory caches to maintain a much higher hit ratio than other products. ZCache also features built in encryption for safe, high speed data transactions that you can implement easily into your application.

Applications Advantages

Speed can be a real problem in major applications development, and by leveraging the power of ZCache, you can turn a sluggish, not-very-scalable monster application into the high speed application that your customers have come to expect! Without spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to working around technological deficiencies.

ZCache's benefits include:

  • HUGE speed increases, due to caching and a compact communications protocol.
  • Dramatically easier to implement than typical SQL, resulting in lower cost product development, and simplified maintenance.
  • Massive increase in concurrent users per server
  • Reduced server workload
  • Reduced latency
  • Stateless operation that fits nicely in server farm environments
  • Supports ALL IP enabled client devices, not just Java based, including:
    • PDA's
    • Telephony
    • MFG shop floor devices

Typically data access is a serious bottleneck limiting application performance. ZCache acceleration drastically improves throughput of a web site or an application on a local LAN.

ZCache currently supports MySQL and Oracle database engines, and will soon be supporting a wide variety of popular database services native to a variety of operating systems and platforms.

With ZCache you have all the benefits of SQL, with the convenience and speed of records based data access.

No longer are developers restricted to the traditional limitations of SQL. Now developers can be free to offer features and performance not possible with current technologies, while still being able to use familiar database management tools and proven, reliable, mainstream database engines.

Converting an existing SQL application to take advantage of ZCache is easy, and results in tighter and cleaner code. ZCacheBean provides a super simple interface to ZCache and allows relational movement through your data. Methods like getNext() and getPrev() are far easier to apply than the SQL alternative, and carry with them the immediacy that only ZCache can provide.

Give yourself and your application a critical edge! Get ZCache.

ZCache is a revolutionary product, that solves one of the biggest difficulties in e-commerce today, the need for speed. Small sites with limited traffic can use existing technologies successfully but as demand grows, access to data becomes a critical bottleneck.

Customers want to use the Internet to quickly complete a transaction, and become very irritated by long delays waiting for a completed search. You lose customers!

ZCache makes it possible to dramatically reduce the delay when accessing data, reduce the costs of extensive hardware 'work-arounds' (and resulting maintenance costs), and actually simplifies the software development of your e-commerce applications.

The simplified protocol of ZCache makes it useable by everything from PDAs to mainframes, and any language or development environment with IP support. This isn't just a Java tool, but a nearly universal data access protocol.
