Interface IMap

All Superinterfaces:

Cache, Map

public interface IMap
extends Cache

Notice: since 7.0 this API is internal and might be subject to changes in future versions.

Use GigaMap instead.

This interface extends Map interface and provides Map interface to GigaSpaces. The IMap interface can be used in remote , embedded and Master-Local Topology.
The Map interface provides three collection views, which allow a map's contents to be viewed as a set of keys, collection of values, or set of key-value mappings.

You can associate attributes to a key and values (e.g. security tags, special user profiles, etc.), and set time for entries to exist in the cache until eviction.

Since:

3.2

Version:

6.0
