If you execute in-memory SQL queries using Ignite API, you have to load the
data from the store first:
https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/data-loading#ignitecacheloadcache

Read-through works only for key based access. With queries you don't know
set of required keys in advance, thus only data which is already in memory
is used to execute them.
