This 2-day course offers both an overview of Oracle Coherence and a deep dive into the more technical aspects of this exciting technology.

Oracle Coherence is a Java, .NET, and C++ enabled clustered caching and data grid technology that delivers high availability, rapid performance, and extreme scalability. You will learn the theory of caching and various caching techniques, and you will gain a good understanding of the capabilities of Oracle Coherence. Upon completion of the course, you will know when and how each of the different caching options and features should be used, you will be able to take full advantage of all of the available functionality within Coherence, and you will know how to use it to achieve exceptional data caching performance for highly demanding data intensive and transactional applications.

LEARN HOW TO:

* Understand the concerns of reliability, availability and scalability.
* Understand the value-add of clustered caching and grid computing
* Understand the differences between the various Oracle Coherence editions.
* Identify when Oracle Coherence is a suitable fit for your needs.
* Get started with Oracle Coherence.
* Access the grid from Java and write sophisticated queries using the Oracle Coherence API
* Understand advanced functionality such as Read-through, Write-through, Refresh-ahead, and Write-behind caching.
* Unleash the full power of grid computing using Oracle Coherence APIs.
* Access your Oracle Coherence cache and grid from Java and .NET clients using Oracle Coherence *Extend.
