Re: [infinispan-dev] Dropping AtomicMap/FineGrainedAtomicMap

The delta’s will remain, but they’re each key/value pair. Example: say you want to store a dehydrated list of three elements (“one”, “two”, “three”) in Infinispan Before you’d do (approx): key=my-list value=AtomicMap(k=1,v=“one”, k=2,v=“two”, k3=“v3”) Internally, we’d track deltas and only send those changes. What I propose we do is: key=1 (group=“my-list") value=“one” key=2 (group=“my-list") value=“two” key=3 (group=“my-list") value=“three” The delta’s are still there. Each changed key is sent separately, when it changes. This is not the final product of course. As agreed with Pedro, we’d need a way to have a view map for all key/value pairs associated with a given group, i.e. cache.getGroups(“my-list”). I know Sanne et al also need a way to have coarse grained locking on the entire group sometimes, as well as fine grained locking, so we’d need to find a way to accomodate that.
