Abstract
An in-memory data grid (IMDG) server includes an i/o interface for transmitting and receiving data over a network. A random access memory (RAM) is configured with the IMDG which stores plural different data sets that may be requested for retrieval by applications that can connect to the IMDG server through the network. A processor receives requests for retrieval of data from the IMDG data sets, and sends the requested data to the requesting application. The IMDG server also includes a request prioritizer that determines, when two or more applications, which are competing applications that defined as having requests co-pending at the IMDG server to retrieve one or more of the data sets, which of the competing applications has the highest priority relative to the other competing applications. The request prioritizer causes a data set requested by the application with the highest priority to be handled before requests from the applications.
