1.4. Indexing

When indexing is set up, the Query module transparently indexes every added, updated, or removed cache entry. Indices improve performance of queries, though induce additional overhead during updates. For index-less querying see Chapter 6, The Infinispan Query DSL.

For data that already exists in the grid, create an initial Lucene index. After relevant properties and annotations are added, trigger an initial batch index as shown in Section 2.4.4, “Rebuilding the Index”.
