developer • Work on various JBoss projects • Twitter: @galderz • Blog: zamarreno.com Thursday, November 3, 11
Agenda • What is TorqueBox? • Rails caching limitations •
What is Infinispan? • TorqueBoxStore • Cloud storage with Infinispan Thursday, November 3, 11
What is TorqueBox? The mating of JRuby to JBoss Application
Server Thursday, November 3, 11
What is TorqueBox? Thursday, November 3, 11
Goals of TorqueBox • Support Ruby web frameworks • Rails,
Sinatra, Rack • Go beyond web • Messaging • Enterprise-Grade Caching • Data Grid Storage Thursday, November 3, 11
Hmmm, but... ... Rails already supports caching ... and why
would I want to store data in a data grid? Thursday, November 3, 11
What’s wrong with Rails caching? Thursday, November 3, 11
Caches are OK Actually, action and fragment caches are useful
in production but they don’t cover all needs Thursday, November 3, 11
Cache Stores Choice provided by Rails is a bit limited...
Thursday, November 3, 11
MemoryStore Does not share cache contents and is not concurrent-safe
Thursday, November 3, 11
MemCacheStore Caches in Danga’s Memcached servers Probably the most popular
option in production Thursday, November 3, 11
MemCacheStore Do you really need a separate process for a
cache? Cache operations not local... Thursday, November 3, 11
TorqueBoxStore Brand new store! Integrates with Infinispan, a data grid
platform from JBoss Thursday, November 3, 11
Introducing Thursday, November 3, 11
What is Infinispan? An in-memory, highly available, elastic, and open
source (LGPL) data grid platform Thursday, November 3, 11

Thursday, November 3, 11

not just in-memory • Adaptive eviction and expiration • JMX and RHQ server monitoring • ...etc Thursday, November 3, 11
Why should I use TorqueBoxStore? Thursday, November 3, 11
TorqueBoxStore Provides a local, in-memory, highly-concurrent, clustered cache Thursday, November
3, 11
config/application.rb Thursday, November 3, 11
Default Cache Mode When TorqueBox clustered, it uses Invalidation, otherwise
it’s just Local Thursday, November 3, 11
