		JBoss Data Grid is a distributed in-memory data grid, which provides the following capabilities: 
		
	
- Schemaless key-value store – Red Hat JBoss Data Grid is a NoSQL database that provides the flexibility to store different objects without a fixed data model.
 - Grid-based data storage – Red Hat JBoss Data Grid is designed to easily replicate data across multiple nodes.
 - Elastic scaling – Adding and removing nodes is achieved simply and is non-disruptive.
 - Multiple access protocols – It is easy to access the data grid using REST, Memcached, Hot Rod, or simple map-like API.
 
		JBoss Data Grid 6.1 and JBoss Data Grid 6.1 Beta is based on Infinispan version 5.2.
