            .inmememor1__text
                p In-memory cache is&nbsp;a&nbsp;storage layer placed between applications and databases. The cache keeps your hot data in&nbsp;memory to&nbsp;offload existing databases and accelerate applications.

            .inmememor2__right 
                p When Apache Ignite is&nbsp;deployed as&nbsp;a&nbsp;data grid, the application layer begins to&nbsp;treat Ignite as&nbsp;the primary store.
                p As&nbsp;applications write to&nbsp;and read from the data grid, Ignite ensures that all underlying external databases stay updated and are consistent with the in-memory data.

                p This strategy is recommended for architectures that need to:
                ul.dashlist.pt-1
                    li accelerate disk-based databases;
                    li create a shared caching layer across various data sources.
            .inmememor2__right
                p Ignite integrates with many databases out-of-the-box and, in&nbsp;write-through or&nbsp;write-behind mode, can synchronize all changes to&nbsp;the databases.
                p The strategy also applies to&nbsp;ACID&nbsp;transactions: Ignite will coordinate and commit a&nbsp;transaction across its in-memory cluster as&nbsp;well as&nbsp;to&nbsp;a&nbsp;relational database.
                p Read-through capability implies that, if&nbsp;a&nbsp;record is&nbsp;missing from memory, a&nbsp;cache can read the data from an&nbsp;external database. Ignite fully supports this capability for key-value APIs.
                p When you use Ignite SQL, you must preload the dataset into memory&mdash;because Ignite SQL can query on-disk data only if&nbsp;the data is&nbsp;stored in&nbsp;native persistence.

                p This strategy works well in two cases:
                ul.pt-1
                    li 1. The cached data is relatively static, i.e. not updated frequently
                    li 2. A temporary data lag is allowed between the primary store and the cache
            .inmememor2__right
                p It&rsquo;s usually assumed that changes will be&nbsp;fully replicated eventually and, <br>thus, the cache and the primary store will become consistent.

                    p When Apache Ignite is&nbsp;deployed in&nbsp;a&nbsp;cache-aside configuration, its native persistence can be&nbsp;used as&nbsp;a&nbsp;disk store for Ignite datasets. <a href="/arch/native-persistence.html">Native persistence</a> allows for elimination of&nbsp;the time-consuming cache warm-up step.
                    p As&nbsp;native persistence maintains a&nbsp;full copy of&nbsp;data on&nbsp;disk, you can cache a&nbsp;subset of&nbsp;records in&nbsp;memory. If&nbsp;a&nbsp;required data record is&nbsp;missing from memory, then Ignite reads the record from the disk automatically, regardless of&nbsp;which API you use&nbsp;&mdash; whether SQL, key-value, or&nbsp;scan queries.
