GridGain Software Editions

The GridGain Enterprise Edition in-memory computing platform is built on top of Apache Ignite™ and adds additional enterprise-grade features, including data center replication, enterprise-grade security, rolling upgrades, and more. The Enterprise Edition is extensively tested by GridGain and is recommended for production use in large-scale or mission-critical deployments, or environments with heightened security requirements. You can try it for free for 30 days by downloading the GridGain Enterprise Edition now.

The GridGain Professional Edition is a binary build of Apache Ignite™ created by GridGain, which includes optional LGPL dependencies, such as Hibernate L2 cache integration and Geospatial Indexing. It benefits from ongoing QA testing by GridGain engineers and contains bug fixes which have not yet been released in the Apache Ignite™ code base. It is suitable for small-scale deployments which do not require advanced resilience or enterprise-grade security. The Professional Edition is only available to GridGain subscription support customers.

Both the Enterprise and Professional Editions are subscription-based products which are included with GridGain Support.
