#GeodeSummit - Where Does Geode Fit in Modern System Architectures
The document discusses how Apache Geode fits into modern system architectures using the Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) pattern. CQRS separates reads and writes so that each can be optimized independently. Geode is well-suited as the read store in a CQRS system due to its ability to efficiently handle queries and cache data through regions. The document provides references on CQRS and related patterns to help understand how they can be applied with Geode.

- 4. • Over theyears have worked on many enterprise projects for a number of customers • First hands-on experience with Geode when consulting at SouthWest Airlines.. • ..in the role of technical lead on a multi-team project, where Geode played a prominent role in the system architecture 4 Relationship with Geode
- 5. • gfsh • OQLand the data browser • PDX serialization • Spring Data GemFire • Learn how to do automated functional testing with it 5 My Journey
- 6. • At first,we were so focused on building features • Regions were already defined by solutions architects, treated them as tables • Didn’t pay too close attention to the fact that we had: • near-linear scale-out capabilities built-in with partitioned regions • fault-tolerance with redundant data copies • locators adding indirection, clients isolated from cluster specifics 6 Don’t immediately realize what you’ve got
- 7. 7 Example: Queries againstpartitioned regions Client Geode Distributed System Query against partitioned region Server Query Executor Partitioned Region Server Partitioned Region Server Partitioned Region Can go further with server-side functions
- 8. • A Database,but in-memory? • Can also double as a simple cache? • A key-value store, but supports queries? • Supports transactions • Events? 8 Unique Combination of Features
- 9. • Briefly reviewedthe traits of Apache Geode • It takes time to “wrap one’s head around” the whole of this product 9 Impressive feature set So, what can you do with it?
- 10. • Specific toJava stack: O/RM and Hibernate • can plug in as Hibernate L2 Cache • Peer-to-peer configuration 10 Use Cases “in the Small”
- 11. • Can bean out-of-process cache server, like Redis, or memcached ➡ gemcached • These are fine, but does not take advantage of the full feature set 11 Use Cases “in the Small”

- 13. • On acouple of projects over the last couple of years, have been exposed to CQRS • At first it seemed strange, or overly complex. Didn't get it • Kept asking myself: • Why not start out simpler? • Seems rather complicated • It’s more work 13 Switching Gears
- 14. • Stands forCommand Query Responsibility Segregation • A Pattern • deliberately not prescriptive regarding how you implement this separation • Separation all the way down to the database • Germ of the idea came from Bertrand Mayer (of Eiffel fame), with concept of CQS • Introduced, proposed by Greg Young • Active .NET community, Udi Dahan among others 14 What is CQRS?
- 15. 15 CQRS.. ..tells you what, nothow, but to answer why, we are asked to look at what happens when you “go there”
- 16. 16 When reads andwrites are separate..
- 17. • With asingle schema, you’re forced to optimize for one at the expense of the other • With two schemas, one can be optimized for reads and the other for writes (have your cake and eat it too) • relational model for writes • denormalized views for reads 17 ..can optimize reads and writes Read-Optimized Write-Optimized Data-Representation Spectrum 3rd normal formdenormalized views
- 18. 18 Reading when yourdata is normalized Request Services Repositories multiple queries, lots of joins results transformations views Relational Database Controller compositions Constantly reassembling views
- 19. • no joinsnecessary • no transformations • no need to reconstruct a view model for each request 19 With a denormalized schema Apache Geode Region: Customers Region: Orders Region: Products . . .
- 20. • Can scalereads and writes independently • many systems have a profile where reads outnumber writes at 100:1 ratio • Read and write sides can be implemented with entirely different tools and technologies • Read-side can stay up when write-side is temporarily down 20 ..more benefits
- 21. • Commands aresemantic, in the language of the business, not REST CRUD: AddToCart, AddPaymentMethod, ChangeAddress • Command handling can be asynchronous • enqueue commands • can scale command handling 21 Command Side See: Udi Dahan Clarified CQRS
- 22. • The LOG •Append-only, no mutation • Immutable storage, doesn't destroy history • Activity just a stream of events • tables are projections, can be derived entirely from log • views can be recreated at will • multiple views 22 Event Sourcing See: Martin Kleppmann Stream processing, Event sourcing, Reactive, CEP … and making sense of it all
- 23. • Data inMotion vs Data at Rest • Entire History vs Snapshot in time • Source of truth vs derived information • materialized views, caches, indexes, aggregations 23 The Log / Table Duality See: Jay Kreps The Log: What every software engineer should know about real-time data's unifying abstraction See: Martin Kleppmann Stream processing, Event sourcing, Reactive, CEP … and making sense of it all
- 24. • ..in testenvironments to reproduce bugs • ..in dev environments to test an upcoming release • ..in production to “undo” a bug • ..in production for blue-green type deployments • Can transition to a new schema/representation of data in your regions because you've come up with a radically different user interface for navigating that information. 24 Replaying the Log See: Greg Young CQRS and Event Sourcing

- 27. • Apache Geodeas the read store in a CQRS system is a particularly good fit: • eager cache invalidation • scalable and fast reads via.. • regions store denormalized views • partitioned regions enable linear scale-out • in-memory data supports low-latency reads • Curious to learn how Geode is being applied in your work 27 Summary
