JCache

JSR-107 JCache is a standardized caching API that is Java 6 compatible and introduced in JEE 8. Caffeine provides a local in-memory implementation. The JCache provider is configured using Typesafe's Config library. See the reference.conf for more details. A FactoryCreator may be configured to delegate instantiation to a dependency injection framework.

Annotation support

Be weary of anonymous caches, which are created using the specification's defaults settings. This means a cache that never expires and stores by value (serialization).

Spring

See the Spring documentation.

Prefer using Spring Cache, which includes support for Caffeine as of Spring Framework 4.3 and Spring Boot 1.4.

Guice

The JSR provides an integration module that delegates to the JCache provider.

compile 'org.jsr107.ri:cache-annotations-ri-guice:1.1.0'

Injector injector = Guice.createInjector(new CacheAnnotationsModule());

CDI

The JSR provides an extension that delegates to the JCache provider.

compile 'org.jsr107.ri:cache-annotations-ri-cdi:1.1.0'
