SpaceDeck
Overview
GigaSpaces SpaceDeck is an intuitive, streamlined user interface to manage and control the GigaSpaces environment.
Using SpaceDeck, you can define the tools to bring legacy System of Record (SoR) databases into the in-memory data grid that is the core of the GigaSpaces system.
SpaceDeck has the following advantages:
-
No-code functionality – the environment can be set up and monitored using the user-friendly SpaceDeck screens, eliminating the need for writing or customizing code
-
The ability for you to create and execute low-code SQL micro-services.
-
A full complement of data and system monitoring tools.
SpaceDeck does not yet cover all functionality of our previous UIs. Refer to the Platform Feature Access page which explains which of our UIs manage each of our main platform operations. SpaceDeck is initially available as part of our Smart DIH Kubernetes installation.
