Hello Ignite community! I read through the Ignite docs a few times and was playing with Ignite for a few weeks. But I still can't figure out the Ignite terminology...
What are definitions and relations of the following: grid, grid instance, ignite cluster (cluster), ignite node (node)? I feel like in the Ignite context grid and cluster are interchangeably terms, but still not 100% sure about it. How to make the nodes belong to the same cluster (/grid, if the term is interchangeable)? Setting the same gridName seems to do it: Ignition.ignite("MY_GRID_NAME").cluster().nodes()... I see 2 nodes in the collection and with the correct node IDs. But I'm confused by the .ignite(...) java doc, which says: "Note that caller of this method should not assume that it will return the same instance every time. Grid name defines what grid a particular grid instance (and correspondingly its node) belongs to" --Alexander. -- View this message in context: http://apache-ignite-users.70518.x6.nabble.com/Ignite-terminology-tp3687.html Sent from the Apache Ignite Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
