Hi Subru, Ignite always stores the data in serialized form, even if it's a local cache.
Can you elaborate how protocol buffers can help you? Basically, you can always implement Marshaller interface and provide the implementation in configuration. But note that you can also customize the serialization within the binary format by implementing Binarylizable interface in your modes classes. -Val -- View this message in context: http://apache-ignite-users.70518.x6.nabble.com/Question-on-serializibility-constraint-for-key-values-in-Ignite-JCache-tp6434p6487.html Sent from the Apache Ignite Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
