No, It's not like that. You can access any entry from any node, but access time will be different. If an entry is stored on a different node, Ignite will make a network request to that node and return it to you. If the entry is available locally, then the access time will be lower. And if you configure an oh-heap caching, and an entry is available locally, then the access time will be even lower.
So, on-heap cache doesn't affect availability of records, it's just an internal enhancement to make access to some entries faster. If you enable it, you won't need to change any code, you will just get lower access time for some records, and higher memory consumption. And eviction policy is not determining, which entries are stored in the cache, but the entries, which have lower access time from local nodes.
