Implementation of Spring cache abstraction based on Ignite cache.

Overview

Spring cache abstraction allows to enable caching for Java methods so that the result of a method execution is stored in some storage. If later the same method is called with the same set of parameters, the result will be retrieved from that storage instead of actually executing the method. For more information, refer to Spring Cache Abstraction documentation.

How To Enable Caching

To enable caching based on Ignite cache in your Spring application, you will need to do the following:

• Start a Ignite node with configured cache in the same JVM where you application is running.
• Configure GridSpringCacheManager as a cache provider in Spring application context.

GridSpringCacheManager can start a node itself on its startup based on provided Ignite configuration. You can provide path to a Spring configuration XML file, like below (path can be absolute or relative to IGNITE_HOME):

 <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xmlns:cache="http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache"
        xsi:schemaLocation="
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache/spring-cache.xsd">
     <-- Provide configuration file path. -->
     <bean id="cacheManager" class="org.apache.ignite.cache.spring.GridSpringCacheManager">
         <property name="configurationPath" value="examples/config/spring-cache.xml"/>
     </bean>

     <-- Use annotation-driven caching configuration. -->
     <cache:annotation-driven/>
 </beans>
 

Or you can provide a IgniteConfiguration bean, like below:

 <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xmlns:cache="http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache"
        xsi:schemaLocation="
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache/spring-cache.xsd">
     <-- Provide configuration bean. -->
     <bean id="cacheManager" class="org.apache.ignite.cache.spring.GridSpringCacheManager">
         <property name="configuration">
             <bean id="gridCfg" class="org.apache.ignite.configuration.IgniteConfiguration">
                 ...
             </bean>
         </property>
     </bean>

     <-- Use annotation-driven caching configuration. -->
     <cache:annotation-driven/>
 </beans>
 

Note that providing both configuration path and configuration bean is illegal and results in IllegalArgumentException.

If you already have Ignite node running within your application, simply provide correct Grid name, like below (if there is no Grid instance with such name, exception will be thrown):

 <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xmlns:cache="http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache"
        xsi:schemaLocation="
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
         http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache http://www.springframework.org/schema/cache/spring-cache.xsd">
     <-- Provide Grid name. -->
     <bean id="cacheManager" class="org.apache.ignite.cache.spring.GridSpringCacheManager">
         <property name="gridName" value="myGrid"/>
     </bean>

     <-- Use annotation-driven caching configuration. -->
     <cache:annotation-driven/>
 </beans>
 

This can be used, for example, when you are running your application in a J2EE Web container and use ServletContextListenerStartup for node startup.

If neither configurationPath, configuration, nor gridName are provided, cache manager will try to use default Grid instance (the one with the null name). If it doesn't exist, exception will be thrown.

Starting Remote Nodes

Keep in mind that the node started inside your application is an entry point to the whole topology it connects to. You can start as many remote standalone nodes as you need using bin/ignite.{sh|bat} scripts provided in Ignite distribution, and all these nodes will participate in caching the data.
