Cache Annotations

The following cache annotations are supported:

• @Cacheable - Indicates a method is cacheable in the specified cache

• @CachePut - Indicates that the return value of a method invocation should be cached. Unlike @Cacheable the original operation is never skipped.

• @CacheInvalidate - Indicates the invocation of a method should cause the invalidation of one or more caches.

Using one of these annotations activates the CacheInterceptor, which in the case of @Cacheable caches the return value of the method.

The emitted result is cached if the method return type is a non-blocking type (either CompletableFuture or an instance of Publisher) .

In addition, if the underlying Cache implementation supports non-blocking cache operations, cache values are read without blocking, resulting in non-blocking cache operations.
