Claims that replacing heavy DB usage with Java-native storage cuts complexity, infra and license costs while speeding apps; demo builds an app using Eclipse Store (GigaMap) with Lucene index and PostgreSQL, wires Debezium CDC to update cache, and runs replication via a Helm chart/SaaS. Example loads 20k–200k book rows, shows warm reads drop from ~168ms to ~10ms and reports ~12,000 RPM vs ~400 RPM vs the database, uses ~300MB RAM vs much higher for the Hibernate stack, and the replication/CDC pipeline works live.
