Hello, I don't think that near cache for thin client on Ignite level it's a good idea.
Expiration is not the only case here. For thick clients near caches are transactionally consistent. For thin clients such a guarantee never can be provided. Near cache for thin clients will be either too heavy (and this contradicts thin clients paradigm) or highly specialized (in this case it's better to implement it on user level). Also, sometimes many thin clients are used inside one application (inside one JVM for java thin client). I know deployments where thin client pool approach or client per thread approach is used. In these cases, it's better to have one near cache for all clients than have it inside each client. I think it's better to provide mechanisms like event listeners or continuous queries to make it possible to implement near caches on user level with guarantees that best fit user's requirements. вт, 19 мая 2020 г. в 15:47, Pavel Tupitsyn <[email protected]>: > Ok, thanks for the explanation. > Yes, this is a good feature, and I've had this in mind for some time. > > Ticket filed: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-13037 > There are no immediate plans, but I think there is a possibility to > achieve this by the end of the year. > > On Tue, May 19, 2020 at 2:52 PM Marty Jones <[email protected]> wrote: > >> The use case is having a local cache that stores most widely used cache >> items in memory on server instead of having the network expense of pulling >> them down every time they are requested.
