Vladimir, In theory, we can add node filter for the corresponding atomics system cache in AtomicConfiguration. In practice, I do not see how this is useful unless you limit the node filter to a single node. A lock/semaphore is represented by a single cache key, so it cannot be collocated with more than one node. In your example this would mean that all but one services would work with a non-collocated instance of Lock. The difference would become substantial if you used millions instances of Locks.
As a separate note - usually it's better off using pessimistic transactions than locks for obvious reasons. пт, 31 янв. 2020 г. в 19:21, Vladimir Steshin <vlads...@gmail.com>: > Folks, who knows if there are restrictions to add node filter for > distributed Semaphore/Lock?
