China Railway | Transportation | 2000000 | $174.0B | China | VMware by Broadcom | VMware GemFire | Database Management | 2011 | International Integrated Systems Egypt | In 2011, China Railway implemented VMware GemFire to support its online ticket reservation system. The deployment targeted nationwide scale, instrumenting the reservation workflow that serves 5700 stations across China to absorb massive seasonal demand spikes. VMware GemFire was deployed as an in-memory data grid providing distributed caching, data partitioning and synchronous replication to preserve availability and consistency for transactional ticket calculations. The project used the Database Management capabilities of VMware GemFire to colocate processing with cached datasets, reduce network hops, and support low-latency query routing for pricing and seat-availability logic. Configuration emphasized node-level caching, partitioned region design and high-availability replication to keep reservation operations responsive under extreme concurrency. The implementation was executed with International Integrated Systems Egypt as the systems integrator and was integrated into the existing online reservation stack to handle front-end booking requests and backend ticket calculation services. Rollout was nationwide across China Railway infrastructure and included staged validation that demonstrated sustained production behavior through peak holiday sales periods. Explicit production outcomes reported by the project include 50–100x faster ticket calculations and maintained latencies in the 10 to 100 ms range under load, with confirmed production performance by the 2013 holiday period. VMware GemFire was central to scaling the ticketing business function and to enabling consistent, low-latency reservation processing across the national footprint. | |

SBI Securities | Banking and Financial Services | 19097 | $8.4B | Japan | VMware by Broadcom | VMware GemFire | Database Management | 2010 | Nomura Research Institute (NRI) | In 2010, SBI Securities implemented VMware GemFire as an in-memory data platform to power its online brokerage trading system, using the Database Management solution to reduce latency and increase transaction throughput. The deployment targeted low-latency, high-concurrency trading workloads and was sized for sustained peak trading volume with an operational go-live in January 2011. The implementation of VMware GemFire centered on an in-memory data grid and distributed caching architecture, configured for real-time data replication and rapid transactional access. Functional capabilities emphasized session state management, fast lookup of market positions and orders, and high-throughput transactional processing consistent with Database Management patterns for finance. The implementation was integrated into SBI Securities trading infrastructure to support front-office trading and order processing, providing a low-latency data tier for the brokerage application stack. Operational coverage was focused on the firms online brokerage trading operations in Japan and supported real-time access requirements across trading workflows. Nomura Research Institute acted as the primary system integrator and application developer with Hitachi FISD as a partner, managing configuration, testing, and rollout. The project went live in January 2011 and reported explicit outcomes of 3 to 20x transaction throughput improvements, an approximately 3x reduction in server count, and a 5x smaller data center footprint based on the published case study. | |

Southwest Airlines | Transportation | 73463 | $26.1B | United States | VMware by Broadcom | VMware GemFire | Database Management | 2010 | n/a | In 2010, Southwest Airlines deployed VMware GemFire to scale session caching for Southwest.com’s ecommerce engine in the United States, addressing thousands of reads and writes per second. VMware GemFire in the Database Management category was selected to provide an in memory distributed cache for high concurrency session state and throughput. Pivotal and VMware engineering and support teams worked with Southwest to tune and deploy a 4 node GemFire cluster, configuring cache region topology and replication to meet high concurrency demands and enable cost effective scale for the website. The implementation centered on session management capabilities, including read and write cache operations, concurrency handling, and cluster level configuration for fault tolerance consistent with Database Management and in memory data grid patterns. Operational coverage focused on the ecommerce and website business function for Southwest.com across the United States, with governance and rollout executed through vendor led tuning and support alongside Southwest engineers, and the deployment enabled much greater session throughput and cost effective scale as recorded in the project notes. |
