Cache persistence

[frank3wang]

Can anyone confirm that JBossCache persists its cache on disk? It would be extremely useful during application restart; otherwise a separate cache server has to be used.

No, it does not yet. I'm working on the CacheLoader (see org.jboss.cache.loader.* package), but it is not yet finished.
CacheLoader will be part of the 1.1 release.

Bela,

Thank you for the quick reply. The cache persistence on disk is very important for a real production application. I'm currently using OScache in my production env with about 2m hits a day. It would be interesting to see how fast the JBossCache performs as a distributed cache, but I need persistence on disk first.

1) Do u know the rough time frame for the version 1.1 JBossCache with disk persistence?
2) What about the JSR 107 JCache API? eg. CacheAcess APIs. Any plans for move into the JSP107 API?

Depends on my (and Ben's) work load. I would like to release 1.1 before JavaOne (end of June).

JCache is not yet out. As soon as it (the spec) is final, we will implement it. It is not on top of my list though, we have other more important stuff to do first.
