Redis based MyBatis Cache implementation

Implements MyBatis Cache based on Redis.

Compatible with MyBatis 3.0.0+

Redisson provides various MyBatis Cache implementations with features below:

local cache - so called near cache used to speed up read operations and avoid network roundtrips. It caches Map entries on Redisson side and executes read operations up to 45x faster in comparison with common implementation. Local cache instances with the same name connected to the same pub/sub channel. This channel is used for exchanging of update/invalidate events between all instances. Local cache store doesn't use hashCode()/equals() methods of key object, instead it uses hash of serialized state.

data partitioning - although Map object is cluster compatible its content isn't scaled/partitioned across multiple Redis master nodes in cluster. Data partitioning allows to scale available memory, read/write operations and entry eviction process for individual Map instance in Redis cluster.

1. Scripted eviction

Allows to define time to live or max idle time parameters per entry. Redis hash structure doesn't support eviction thus it's done on Redisson side through a custom scheduled task which removes expired entries using Lua script. Eviction task is started once per unique object name at the moment of getting Map instance. If instance isn't used and has expired entries it should be get again to start the eviction process. This leads to extra Redis calls and eviction task per unique map object name.

Entries are cleaned time to time by org.redisson.eviction.EvictionScheduler. By default, it removes 100 expired entries at a time. This can be changed through cleanUpKeysAmount setting. Task launch time tuned automatically and depends on expired entries amount deleted in previous time and varies between 5 second to 30 minutes by default. This time interval can be changed through minCleanUpDelay and maxCleanUpDelay. For example, if clean task deletes 100 entries each time it will be executed every 5 seconds (minimum execution delay). But if current expired entries amount is lower than previous one then execution delay will be increased by 1.5 times and decreased otherwise.

MyBatis Cache Usage

1. Add redisson-mybatis dependency into your project:

Maven

     <dependency>
         <groupId>org.redisson</groupId>
         <artifactId>redisson-mybatis</artifactId>
         <version>3.35.0</version>
     </dependency>

Gradle

     compile 'org.redisson:redisson-mybatis:3.35.0'

2. Specify MyBatis cache settings

Redisson allows to define follow settings per Cache instance:

timeToLive - defines time to live per cache entry

maxIdleTime - defines max idle time per cache entry

maxSize - defines max size of entries amount stored in Redis

localCacheProvider - cache provider used as local cache store. REDISSON and CAFFEINE providers are available. Default value: REDISSON

localCacheEvictionPolicy - local cache eviction policy. LFU, LRU, SOFT, WEAK and NONE eviction policies are available.

localCacheSize - local cache size. If size is 0 then local cache is unbounded.

localCacheTimeToLive - time to live in milliseconds for each map entry in local cache. If value equals to 0 then timeout is not applied.

localCacheMaxIdleTime - max idle time in milliseconds for each map entry in local cache. If value equals to 0 then timeout is not applied.

localCacheSyncStrategy - local cache sync strategy. INVALIDATE, UPDATE and NONE eviction policies are available.

redissonConfig - defines path to redisson config in YAML format
