Ignite as a collection of independent, well-integrated, in-memory components geared to improve performance and scalability of your application. Some of these components include: Advanced Clustering, Data Grid, SQL Grid, Streaming & CEP, Compute Grid, Service Grid, Ignite File System. Ignite also has integrations for accelerating data processing frameworks such as Hadoop and Spark. In addition to its own its own stream processing capability, integrations also exist for JMS, MQTT, Apache Flume, Apache Storm, Apache Kafka, Apache Camel, and Apache Flink, which will be covered in the session.
