使用扩展TreeMap和Hazelcast TreeMap，充当Hazelcast分布式Map。

Question

I have one my own extended TreeMap named MyTreeMap which is used to create TreeMap dynamically based on the DAO passed as parameter MyTreeMap. Also, Hazelcast provides its own TreeMap which we can have by creating instance of the Hazelcast. like instance = Hazelcast.getMap("HazelcastTreeMap");

How i can achieve my own treemap "MyTreeMap" act as the Hazelcast treemap, not losing any of the extended properties. possessing both fetures of both TreeMaps.

Answer 1

Hazelcast 3 has introduced the SPI. Hazelcast has a lot of distributed data-structures and they all use a common lower level infrastructure. We have pulled up this infrastructure in user space and called it the SPI.

Using this SPI you can now create your own distributed data-structures like the TreeMap. But you can also make other distributed services, eg a distributed actors implementation. So you are not longer limited by what Hazelcast provided, but only by your own imagination :)
