Module 3: Running the sample application in the data grid

To run the sample application, you must first start catalog servers and container servers. Then, you can run your sample application.

The process for starting catalog and container servers is the same whether you are running the .NET or Java application. How you run your client application varies depending on if you are running the Java or .NET sample.

Learning objectives

After completing the lessons in this module you will know how to do the following:

• Start catalog and container servers
• Run the Java getting started sample client application
• Run the .NET sample client application

In addition to running the Java and .NET sample applications separately, you can run them concurrently on the same data grid. For example, you can insert a value into the data grid with the .NET application and then get the value with the Java application. In this scenario, you are running an enterprise data grid.

• Getting started tutorial lesson 3.1: Starting catalog and container servers
  To run the sample client application, you must start a catalog server and a container server.
• Getting started tutorial lesson 3.2: Running the Java getting started sample client application
  Use the following steps to run a Java client to interact with the data grid. The catalog server, container server, and client all run on a single server in this example.
• Getting started tutorial lesson 3.3: Running the .NET sample client application
  Use the following steps to run a WebSphere eXtreme Scale Client for .NET application to interact with the data grid. The catalog server, container server, and client all run on a single server in this example.
