Interface Cache<K,​V>

Type Parameters:
K - The type of the key.
V - The type of the value.
All Known Implementing Classes:
GuavaCache, InMemoryCache, NoCache
public interface Cache<K,​V>
A contract that defines a semi-persistent mapping of keys and values.
Cache entries are manually added using put(Cache, Cache), and are stored in the cache until either evicted or manually removed. After storing a value, it can be accessed using get(Cache).
