Overview
ScaleOut StateServer is an in-memory data grid (IMDG), also called a distributed cache, which runs as a distributed software service on a set of dedicated virtual servers to help scale application performance. It stores an application's data objects in memory, makes them instantly accessible to networked web or application servers, and scales to handle large workloads. Stored objects can be uniformly accessed by clients using a fully consistent storage model, and the grid enables simultaneous access by different clients to data objects stored on different grid servers. Once provisioned, ScaleOut StateServer automatically balances the amount of storage used by each server in the grid to scale throughput and maintain fast response times. As new servers running ScaleOut StateServer are provisioned, they automatically rebalance the workload to expand storage capacity and throughput. High availability is built into every feature of ScaleOut StateServer to support the needs of mission-critical applications. A comprehensive set of Java, C/C++, .NET, and REST APIs enable applications to directly access the IMDG as a key/value store using create/read/update/delete semantics. APIs also can perform a wide variety of operations, such as querying objects by their properties and handling asynchronous events. AWS instances include Standard Support for ScaleOut StateServer. Premium support packages are available directly from ScaleOut Software.
Highlights
- Fast, Scalable Performance: Scales to hundreds of server instances to provide fast response times for large workloads. This gives your applications the performance and scalability they need, and the flexibility to grow or shrink the grid as required.
- Ease of Use: Self-organizes by automatically combining server instances into a uniformly accessible and scalable in-memory data grid. No configuration steps are required for creating a grid membership, failover, partitioning, or client-side caching.
- Powerful, Advanced Features: Includes highly automated cloud deployment, fully consistent data storage, parallel query, object browser, parallel backup/restore, object locking, object timeouts and dependencies, event handling, and much more.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
To administer this product after deployment, if the Web Management Console was enabled, please visit http://
To acquire these tools on your management workstation, download and install the latest ScaleOut StateServer Remote Client installer for Linux operating systems or the ScaleOut StateServer installer for Windows systems from our Support Downloads page: http://www.scaleoutsoftware.com/support/support-downloads/ . On Windows operating systems, select the Remote Client/Cloud Mgt. setup type.
Once installed, please see the ScaleOut StateServer User Guide for step-by-step instructions to manage ScaleOut StateServer on Amazon Web Services. This help file can be found in the product installation directory on your local system, or online at http://www.scaleoutsoftware.com/support/product-documentation/ . On Windows systems, this help file is also available in the Start menu. Once opened, please review the sections under Deploying SOSS in the Cloud, including both the Overview and Deploying in Amazon Web Services sections.
Client applications running as a single instance or as multiple instances can connect to and make use of a deployed in-memory data grid using APIs provided by the ScaleOut StateServer Remote Client libraries. Client applications can run either within Amazon Web Services or on remote client systems. Please install the ScaleOut Remote Client libraries on all instances or servers that need to access a deployed in-memory data grid. Follow the instructions in the Product Documentation to enable a client application to dynamically connect to a named data grid within Amazon Web Services. These instructions explain how to configure the client configuration file, soss_client_params.txt, which the user stages in the ScaleOut StateServer installation folder on each client instance or remote client system prior to starting the client application.
