inmemorytietokanta
An in-memory tietokanta, or in-memory database, is a type of database management system that primarily stores data in the random access memory (RAM) of computers rather than on disk storage. This approach contrasts with traditional disk-based databases, which rely on persistent storage for data retrieval and processing. In-memory databases are designed to leverage the significantly faster access speeds of RAM, enabling near-instantaneous data processing and reduced latency in applications that require high performance.
The key advantage of in-memory databases is their speed, as accessing data from RAM is typically thousands
However, in-memory databases also have limitations. Since data is stored in RAM, it is not persistent unless
Modern in-memory databases often combine in-memory processing with disk storage for persistence, hybrid architectures that balance
