Abstract
An in-memory data management (IMDM) system is described that includes an IMDM cluster, a load balancer, and a reallocation processor controller. The IMDM cluster includes a plurality of nodes. The controller determines whether there is an actionable load imbalance of existing data elements, stored among the plurality of nodes, based on a predefined criteria or rule. The controller further identifies a source node from which at least one data element is to be deleted and a target node to which the at least one data element that is to be deleted is to be added. The source node and target node contribute to the actionable load imbalance. The controller copies the at least one data element that is to be deleted from the source node into the target node, and deletes the at least one data element that is to be deleted from the source node.
