Chapter 1. Using Embedded Caches

Configure your application to use embedded caches.

You are now ready to use Data Grid caches directly within your application, as in the following example:

cacheManager.getCache("testCache").put("testKey", "testValue");
System.out.println("Received value from cache: " + cacheManager.getCache("testCache").get("testKey"));

Starting with Spring 6.1, reactive mode is supported to make use of caching within reactive applications. If you use spring-boot-starter-webflux, your application may block.

To enable the Data Grid reactive driver, specify the following property in application.properties:

infinispan.embedded.reactive=true

You can customize the Cache Manager with the following configuration beans:

@Bean
public InfinispanCacheConfigurer cacheConfigurer() {
	return manager -> {
		final Configuration ispnConfig = new ConfigurationBuilder()
                        .cacheMode(CacheMode.LOCAL)
                        .build();

		manager.defineConfiguration("default", ispnConfig);
	};
}

@Bean
public InfinispanCacheConfigurer cacheConfigurer() {
	return manager -> {
		final Configuration ispnConfig = new ConfigurationBuilder()
                        .clustering()
                        .cacheMode(CacheMode.LOCAL)
                        .build();

		manager.defineConfiguration("local-sync-config", ispnConfig);
	};
}

@Bean(name = "small-cache")
public org.infinispan.configuration.cache.Configuration smallCache() {
    return new ConfigurationBuilder()
        .read(baseCache)
        .memory().size(1000L)
        .memory().evictionType(EvictionType.COUNT)
        .build();
}

@Bean(name = "large-cache")
public org.infinispan.configuration.cache.Configuration largeCache() {
    return new ConfigurationBuilder()
        .read(baseCache)
        .memory().size(2000L)
        .build();
}

@Bean
public InfinispanGlobalConfigurationCustomizer globalCustomizer() {
   return builder -> builder.transport().clusterName(CLUSTER_NAME);
}

@Bean
public InfinispanConfigurationCustomizer configurationCustomizer() {
   return builder -> builder.memory().evictionType(EvictionType.COUNT);
}

With both embedded and remote caches, Data Grid provides an implementation of Spring Cache that you can enable.

If the Data Grid starter detects the:
