Actually Apache Ignite already comes with a very easy to use off-heap store based on JCache (JSR107) API. I think you may be able to reuse it for the Spark off-heap implementation. More information can be found here: http://apacheignite.readme.io/v1.0/docs/off-heap-memory I will comment in the ticket as well. rxin wrote > On Fri, Apr 10, 2015 at 5:21 AM, Devl Devel < > devl.development@ > > > wrote: > >> Hi >> >> Having evaluated the ignite project and it's relationship to spark: >> Ignite >> vs. Spark >> >> https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/IgniteProposal >> >> The scope of the project are defined.
