Olric is a distributed data grid and in-memory key-value store that partitions and replicates data across a cluster of servers. It serves as a shared memory system for managing distributed maps, performing atomic operations, and acting as an in-memory data cache.
The system provides a distributed locking mechanism for concurrency control and a pub-sub messaging system that broadcasts and routes messages over named channels across the cluster.
The platform covers wide-ranging capabilities including cluster management and orchestration, data replication with configurable quorums, and automated memory eviction using time-to-live policies. It also includes tools for monitoring cluster health, auditing data distribution, and password-based client authentication.
Olric can be deployed as a standalone independent service, as a container, or integrated directly into an application as an embedded library.
