Data is hosted from multiple SoRs, consolidated as a unified data model. is not started after initial load failures when Space is in HA mode HA Space puClosed This is the unit of packaging and deployment in the GigaSpaces Data Grid, and is essentially the main GigaSpaces service. The Processing Unit (PU) itself is typically deployed onto the Service Grid.
