[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-4021) Allow each Map/Reduce task to use a different cache configuration

[Vladimir Blagojevic (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-4021?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12946614#comment-12946614 ] 

Vladimir Blagojevic commented on ISPN-4021:
-------------------------------------------

Dan, we have two options here:  

a) we can pass intermediate cache directly to MapReduceTask and thus force correct typing
b) pass the cache name only 

Option b) gives more flexibility in the future if things change internally while option a) minimizes potential errors on the behalf of user at the expense of flexibility a) has.

What should we do?

> Some Map/Reduce tasks may need a cache store and eviction, some may not. Each task should be able to use its own cache configuration.
