Infinispan 6.0.0.Alpha4 out with new CacheLoader/CacheWriter API!

Infinispan 6.0.0.Alpha4 is now with a few very important changes, particularly around cache stores. We’ve completely revamped the cache store/loader API to align it a bit better with JSR-107 (old CacheStore has become CacheWriter) and to simplify creation of new implementations. The new CacheLoader and CacheWriter should help implementors focus on the important operations and reduce the coding time. We’ve also created AdvancedCacheLoader and AdvancedCacheWriter in order to separate for bulk operations or purging for those implementations that wish optionally implement them. Expect a blog post from Mircea in the next few days providing many more details on this topic.

This new Infinispan version comes with other important goodies:

  • Rolling upgrades of a Infinsipan REST cluster

  • Support for Cache-Control headers for REST operations

  • Remote querying server modules and Hot Rod client update

  • REST and LevelDB stores added to Infinispan Server

  • KeyFilters can now be applied to Cache listeners

  • Allow Cache listener events to be invoked only on the primary data owner
