Hi, No, heap and off-heap memory are different features.
*Heap *memory uses -Xms and -Xmx option to allocate the memory used for different operations and generally can't be used for data storing (in case of you don't set on-heap caching). Java GC will work with current memory.
*Off-heap* memory uses *initial *and *max *properties for region size that should be set in the data region configuration. This memory will be used for data storage. Java GC will not work with current memory.

I have below question: Do both on-heap & off-heap caches use memory from data regions (by setting initial & max of DataRegionConfiguration)? Does Ignite use heap provided to the application (-Xms & -Xmx) for cache storage? -- Sent from: http://apache-ignite-users.70518.x6.nabble.com/
