In-Memory Computing: Let’s learn how to adapt to an increase in online traffic!

Welcome back to the eCommerce forum!

In-memory computing is the storage of data in a server’s RAM as a way to process at faster speeds. Moreover, in-memory computing can help online companies adapt to an increase in traffic. This is important because intensive loads can lead to database system failure. We have an amazing speaker for our upcoming eCommerce Meetup. He will teach us how in-memory computing can provide Internet scalability.
