Use Apache Ignite as your Key/Value store!
From Apache's Ignite website:
Apache Ignite® is a horizontally scalable, fault-tolerant distributed in-memory computing platform for building real-time applications that can process terabytes of data with in-memory speed.
This plugin allows to use Apache Ignite as the Key/Value storage mechanism for your Hyperledger Besu instance.
First, clone this repository:
git clone git@github.com:41north/besu-storage-ignite.gitOpen IntelliJ, load the project and type the following in the terminal:
./gradlew generateIntellijRunConfigsThat will generate Intellij's Run Configuration from the intellij-run-configs.yaml file with several useful commands (feel free to customize it as necessary).
After the run configs are generated, next type the following in the terminal:
docker-compose upThat will start Apache Ignite. Next is to start Besu with one network by launching one of the following run config:
BESU | Dev > RunBESU | Ropsten > RunBESU | Mainnet > Run
