Near Cache Support For Thin Clients

I wanted to see if there are any plans to support near caches  for thin
clients?   I think it would be a great feature.  I know I could use it right
now.

I personally think that this feature should be implemented in Ignite,
though maybe we should first start from Continuous Queries for thin
clients.

Best Regards,
Igor

Marty,

Continuous queries are certainly planned for thin clients,
and that is the best way to get cache update notifications.

Re: Near Cache Support For Thin Clients

Has there been a request for event listeners for the thin clients?  I am
happy to roll my own implementation of the nearcache if I can get the
events of when cache items within the cluster are added, modified, or
deleted.

Honestly near cache for the thin client is a must for me.  Implementing
this is a huge performance gain.

Re: Near Cache Support For Thin Clients

Posted by Pavel Tupitsyn <pt...@apache.org>.
Alex,

I've recently implemented .NET Native Near Cache [1].
It is a very similar concept, because caching is performed on platform side.

We had requests for this from different users for quite some time.
Users were implementing this on their own with Continuous Queries.
Yes, it is not transactional, but it still provides a huge speedup in many
cases.

Thin Client Near Cache can be based on the same mechanism.
Yes, it is not a trivial feature, but neither is Partition Awareness, for
example.
Performance is a feature.

Re: Near Cache Support For Thin Clients

Posted by Alex Plehanov <pl...@gmail.com>.
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.

Re: Near Cache Support For Thin Clients

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.

Re: Near Cache Support For Thin Clients

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.  The main thing is the near cache
has to support removing cache items that have expired on the server.

The best use case I have is a web application that needs a cache item per
request.  we would not want to pull the cache item from the cluster every
request.   It would be way more efficient for the thin client to have a
near cache that would hold "hot" cache items that are requested frequently.
