4.3. Eviction and Expiration Comparison
4.3. Eviction and Expiration Comparison Expiration is a top-level construct in Red Hat JBoss Data Grid, and is represented in the global configuration, as well as the cache API . Eviction is limited to the cache instance it is used in, whilst expiration is cluster-wide. Expiration life spans ( lifespan ) and idle time ( maxIdle in Library Mode and max-idle in Remote Client-Server Mode) values are replicated alongside each cache entry. Report a bug
