MarshalledEntry (Infinispan JavaDoc All 10.1.0.Beta1 API)

All Superinterfaces:

MarshallableEntry<K,V>
```
@Deprecated
public interface MarshalledEntry<K,V>
extends MarshallableEntry<K,V>
```
Deprecated.
since 10.0, use MarshallableEntry

Defines an externally persisted entry. External stores that keep the data in serialised form should return an MarshalledEntry that contains the data in binary form (ByteBuffer) and unmarshall it lazily when getKey/Value/Metadata are invoked. This approach avoids unnecessary object (de)serialization e.g when the entries are fetched from the external store for the sole purpose of being sent over the wire to another requestor node.

Since:

6.0
