Patent 8949294 was granted and assigned to Red Hat on February, 2015 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A proxy server for a data grid receives an object and a client request to store the object in a database using a first database protocol, wherein the request and the object have a first format that complies with the first database protocol. The first proxy server translates at least one of the object or the request into a second format that complies with a second protocol used by the data grid. A node of the data grid then processes the request to store the object on the data grid.
