Chapter 4. Migrating to Data Grid 8 APIs
Find changes to Data Grid APIs that affect migration to Data Grid 8.
API deprecations and removals
In addition to details in this section, you should also review API deprecations and removals.
See Data Grid Deprecated Features and Functionality (Red Hat Knowledgebase).
4.1. REST API
Data Grid 7.x used REST API v1 which is replaced with REST API v2 in Data Grid 8.
The default context path for REST API v2 is <server_hostname>:11222/rest/v2/
. You must update any clients or scripts to use REST API v2.
The performAsync
header was also removed from the REST endpoint. Clients that perform async operations with the REST endpoint should manage the request and response on their side to avoid blocking.
REST operations PUT
, POST
and DELETE
methods now return status 204
(No content) instead of 200
if the request does not return resources.

4.1.1. REST API changes in 8.3
Data Grid 8.3 includes the following changes to the REST API:
Re-indexing caches
The mass-index
operation to re-index Data Grid caches is now deprecated. Update your clients to use reindex
instead, as in the following example:
/v2/caches/<cacheName>/search/indexes?action=reindex
Rolling upgrade operations
The following operation is now deprecated:
POST /v2/caches/<cacheName>?action=disconnect-source
Use the source-connection
operation instead:
DELETE /v2/caches/<cacheName>/rolling-upgrade/source-connection
4.2. Query API
Data Grid 8 brings an updated Query API that is easier to use and has a lighter design. You get more efficient query performance with better results when searching across values in distributed caches, in comparison with Data Grid 7.x.
Because the Data Grid 8 Query API has gone through considerable refactoring, there are several features and functional resources that are now deprecated.
This topic focuses on changes that you need to make to your configuration when migrating from a previous version. Those changes should include planning to remove all deprecated interfaces, methods, or other configuration.
See the Data Grid Deprecations and Removals (Red Hat Knowledgebase) for the complete list of deprecated features and functionality.
Indexing Data Grid caches
The Data Grid Lucene Directory, the InfinispanIndexManager
and AffinityIndexManager
index managers, and the Infinispan Directory provider for Hibernate Search are deprecated in 8.0 and removed in 8.1.
The auto-config
attribute is deprecated in 8.1 and planned for removal.
The index()
method that configures the index mode configuration is deprecated. When you enable indexing in your configuration, Data Grid automatically chooses the best way to manage indexing.
Several indexing configuration values are no longer supported and result in fatal configuration errors if you include them.
You should make the following changes to your configuration:
-
Change
.indexing().index(Index.NONE)
toindexing().enabled(false)
-
Change all other enum values as follows:
indexing().enabled(true)
Declaratively, you do not need to specify enabled="true"
if your configuration contains other indexing configuration elements. However, you must call the enabled()
method if you programmatically configure indexing. Likewise Data Grid configuration in JSON format must explicitly enable indexing, for example:
"indexing": { "enabled": "true" ... },
Indexed types
You must declare all indexed types in the indexing configuration or Data Grid logs warning messages when undeclared types are used with indexed caches. This requirement applies to both Java classes and Protobuf types.
Enabling indexing in Data Grid 8
Declaratively
<distributed-cache name="my-cache"> <indexing> <indexed-entities> <indexed-entity>com.acme.query.test.Car</indexed-entity> <indexed-entity>com.acme.query.test.Truck</indexed-entity> </indexed-entities> </indexing> </distributed-cache>
Programmatically
import org.infinispan.configuration.cache.*; ConfigurationBuilder config=new ConfigurationBuilder(); config.indexing().enable().addIndexedEntity(Car.class).addIndexedEntity(Truck.class);
Querying values in caches
The org.infinispan.query.SearchManager
interface is deprecated in Data Grid 8 and no longer supports Lucene and Hibernate Search native objects.
Removed methods
.getQuery()
methods that take Lucene Queries. Use the alternative methods that take Ickle queries from theorg.infinispan.query.Search
entry point instead.Likewise it is no longer possible to specify multiple target entities classes when calling
.getQuery()
. The Ickle query string provides entities instead.-
.buildQueryBuilderForClass()
that builds Hibernate Search queries directly. Use Ickle queries instead.
The org.infinispan.query.CacheQuery
interface is also deprecated. You should obtain the org.infinispan.query.dsl.Query
interface from the Search.getQueryFactory()
method instead.
Note that instances of org.infinispan.query.dsl.Query
no longer cache query results and allow queries to be re-executed when calling methods such as list()
.
Entity mappings
You must now annotate fields that require sorting with @SortableField
in all cases.

4.2.1. Query API changes in 8.2
Data Grid upgrades Hibernate and Apache Lucene libraries to improve performance and functionality for the Query API. As part of this upgrade, Data Grid introduces new indexing capabilities and removes several Hibernate and Lucene annotations.
Query statistics
Data Grid 8.2 exposes statistics for queries and indexes only if you enable statistics declaratively in the cache configuration as follows:
<replicated-cache name="myReplicatedCache" statistics="true"> <!-- Cache configuration goes here. --> </replicated-cache>
Enabling statistics for queries and indexes through JMX is no longer possible.
Indexing Data Grid caches
Declaring indexed types
Data Grid 8.1 allowed undeclared types in the indexing configuration. As of Data Grid 8.2, you must declare all indexed types in the configuration. This requirement applies to both Java classes and Protobuf types. See the 8.1 migration details for more information on declaring indexed types.
Index manager
Data Grid 8.2 uses near-real-time
as the default index manager and no longer requires configuration.
Data Grid 8.1:
<indexing> <property name="default.indexmanager">near-real-time</property> </indexing>
Data Grid 8.2:
<indexing enabled="true"/>
Index reader and writer
Data Grid 8.2 introduces an index reader and an index writer, both of which are internal components for creating indexes.
To adapt your configuration, you should:
-
Remove indexing configuration that uses the
property
element or.addProperty()
method. Configure indexing behavior in one of the following ways:
-
Declaratively: Add the
<index-reader>
and<index-writer>
elements. -
Programmatically: Add the
builder.indexing().reader()
andbuilder.indexing().writer()
methods.
-
Declaratively: Add the
Reader refresh
Use the refresh-interval
attribute added in 8.2 to configure the refresh period for the index reader.
Data Grid 8.1:
<indexing> <property name="default.reader.async_refresh_period_ms">1000</property> </indexing>
Data Grid 8.2:
<indexing> <index-reader refresh-interval="1000"/> </indexing>
Writer commit interval
Use the commit-interval
attribute added in 8.2 to configure the interval at which the index writer commits to index storage. In Data Grid 8.2 indexing is asynchronous by default and the default.worker.execution
property is no longer used.
Data Grid 8.1:
<indexing> <property name="default.worker.execution">async</property> <property name="default.index_flush_interval">500</property> </indexing>
Data Grid 8.2:
<indexing> <index-writer commit-interval="500"/> </indexing>
Lucene index tuning properties
Data Grid 8.2 adds a ram-buffer-size
attribute and an index-merge
element with factor
and max-size
attributes that replace properties for tuning indexes.
Data Grid 8.1:
<indexing> <property name="default.indexwriter.merge_factor">30</property> <property name="default.indexwriter.merge_max_size">1024</property> <property name="default.indexwriter.ram_buffer_size">256</property> </indexing>
Data Grid 8.2:
<indexing> <index-writer ram-buffer-size="256"> <index-merge factor="30" max-size="1024"/> </index-writer> </indexing>
Index storage
Data Grid 8.2 includes a storage
attribute that replaces the property
element configuration in previous versions. The storage
attribute lets you configure whether to store indexes in JVM heap or on the host file system.
File system storage
Data Grid 8.1:
<indexing> <property name="default.directory_provider">filesystem</property> <property name="default.indexBase">${java.io.tmpdir}/baseDir</property> </indexing>
Data Grid 8.2:
<indexing storage="filesystem" path="${java.io.tmpdir}/baseDir"/>
JVM heap storage
Data Grid 8.1:
<indexing> <property name="default.directory_provider">local-heap</property> </indexing>
Data Grid 8.2:
<indexing storage="local-heap"> </indexing>
Adapting index properties
When migrating your indexing configuration to Data Grid 8.2, you should also make the following changes:
Remove the
lucene_version
property.ImportantDo not use indexes that you created with older Lucene versions with Data Grid 8.2.
After you adapt your indexing configuration, you should rebuild the index when you start Data Grid for the first time to complete the migration to Data Grid 8.2.
-
Remove the
default.sharding_strategy.nbr_of_shards
property.
This property is deprecated without a replacement. -
Remove the
infinispan.query.lucene.max-boolean-clauses
property.
As of Data Grid 8.2 you should set this as a JVM property.
Hibernate and Lucene annotations
For information about migrating Hibernate and Lucene annotations, such as @Field
, @Indexed
, @SortableField
, and others, refer to the Annotation mapping section of the Hibernate Search Migration Guide.
4.2.2. Query API changes in 8.3
Data Grid 8.3 removes the IndexedQueryMode
parameter. Data Grid automatically detects the optimal mode for querying caches and ignored this optional parameter in earlier versions.

4.2.3. Query API changes in 8.4
Data Grid native annotations
Data Grid 8.4 introduces new indexing annotations: @Indexed
, @Basic
, @Decimal
, @Keyword
, @Text
, and @Embedded
. Each of the annotations supports a set of attributes that you can use to further describe how an entity is indexed.
These new annotations replaced Hibernate Search annotations, which means that you are no longer required to annotate your Java classes with the @ProtoDoc
annotation for remote caches. All annotations are copied as comments to the generated .proto
files.
The following table summarizes the mapping of fields between Hibernate Search 5 (HS5) annotations and Data Grid native annotations:
HS5 annotations | Indexing attributes | Data Grid native annotations | Description |
---|---|---|---|
@Field(index=Index.YES) | searchable | @Basic, @Decimal, @Keyword, @Text | Fields previously marked as indexed are now searchable. |
@Field(store = Store.YES) | projectable = true | @Basic, @Decimal, @Keyword, @Text | Fields previously marked as stored are now projectable. |
type String && @Field(analyze = Analyze.YES) | analyzer = "<definition>" | @Text | String fields that were marked with analyzer definitions continue to be analyzed during indexing. |
@Field(analyze = Analyze.NO) && (@Field(store = Store.YES) OR @Field(sortable = Sortable.YES)) | sortable = true | @Basic, @Decimal, @Keyword | Fields that were not analyzed but were either stored in the index or marked as sortable are now sortable. |
N/A | aggregable = true | @Basic, @Decimal, @Keyword | Performing aggregation operations by using the Hibernate Search 5 annotations was not possible. |
N/A | normalizer = "lowercase" | @Keyword | Mapping fields that were analyzed or normalized is not possible due to the potential data loss in the process. |
Query efficiency
You can limit the number of returned results for a query instance by using the default-max-results
cache property. The default value of default-max-results
is 100. Limiting the number of results returned by a query significantly improves the performance of queries that don’t have an explicit limit set.
