Overview

This runs an embedded spring-boot based pcc (gemfire/geode) cache server that will have both manager and locator part of it.

Getting Started

As always with spring-boot, a simple annotation would get you started. Annotate the main class with

@CacheServerApplication

to get started with an embedded cache server. Following annotations would configure manager and locator as well.

@EnableLocator
@EnableManger

Customization

If the default needs to be changed, let’s say the locator listen port needs to be custom configured, then

@EnableLocator(port = 20388)

In a similar way, other options can be configured for the manager and cache server.

Cache creation

Following code would initialize the Partitioned cache region in the embedded server,

@Bean(name = "formula1region")
	PartitionedRegionFactoryBean formual1Region(Cache gemfireCache) {
		PartitionedRegionFactoryBean f1 = new PartitionedRegionFactoryBean<>();
		f1.setCache(gemfireCache);
		f1.setClose(false);
		f1.setPersistent(false);
		return f1;
	}

This initialises a region named formula1region in the embedded cache server.
