Clustered Caching with Tangosol Coherence II

Following on from yesterday:

• Don’t use primitive types as keys. Create your own Opaque Immutable Type-Safe Key - don’t use Strings/Integers
• Use the term Handle instead of key.
• Locks are expensive as soon as your in a cluster - lock/unlock/get/put etc all incur a certain number of network hops
• EntryProcessor’s cut down network hops
• EntryProcessor’s are synchronous. Remember to increment the number of thread in Coherence from a performance perspective.
• Distributed Caching Lessons
• Deploy all your code to all the node in the Coherence cluster. Coherence is not a container!
• Modeling: Aggregation  and association work fine in Coherence
