By default, each entity and collection is stored in its own cache. These caches are configured from a template cache. For entities, the template cache configuration is "entity" and for collections, "collection".

It is possible that users might want to use different cache configuration per entity and/or collection, e.g. for different expiration, lifespan settings and other potential changes. The most common thing to tweak is expiration, which is why we made these specific expiration changes easy to do.

However, if you want to change other things, like lifespan or max idle settings, you need to define your own cache configuration and then assign the cache name to the entity that you want.

All of this is explained in http://infinispan.org/docs/7.1.x/user_guide/user_guide.html#_advanced_configuration_2, including the different tweaks required in the property names when running inside Wildfly or EAP.

Cheers,
