The Need for Speed: Access Existing Data 1,000x Faster
The Need for Speed: Access Existing Data 1,000x Faster

Web and mobile applications are sometimes slow because the backing database is slow and/or the connection to the database imposes latencies. Modern UIs and interactive applications require fast back-ends with ideally no observable latency or else users will move on to other services or will just get tired and stop using the service altogether.

In this article, we will learn how analytic database applications can be sped up by orders of magnitude using standard Java 8 streams and Speedment's in-JVM-memory acceleration technology. At the end, we will run a JMH test suit with representative benchmarks that indicate a speedup factor exceeding 1,000 times. Learn more about Speedment's open-source solution here.
