Описание тега ehcache
Ehcache is an open source, standards compliant Java-based cache used to boost performance, offload the database and simplify scalability.
Ehcache is robust, proven and full-featured, which has made it the most popular Java-based cache with 100,000’s of production deployments.
It can scale from an in-process cache on one or more nodes through to a mixed in-process/out-of-process configuration capable of terabyte-sized caches. The open source Terracotta Server Array snaps in to provide a coherent distributed cache.
Ehcache is actively developed, maintained and supported as a professional open source project by Terracotta, Inc. and is available under an Apache 2 license.
