Exactly.
Obviously in the case of a JPA cache store, the V would be an @Entity and therefore "automapped" by the persistence provider. For Cassandra this would have to be explicitly processed by a Value to Store mapper (which could come useful also with the plain JDBC store).

Tristan,

We do have an open JIRA for a JPA cache store over a RDBMS, which would map entities on to columns.  Are you suggesting something similar?

This means that instead of putting a binary blob into the store, the data would be mapped in a more natural format. This could also come in useful for the JDBC store.
