Well, I believe invokeAll() has "update" semantics and using it for read-only 
filtering of cache entries is probably not going to be efficient or even 
appropriate.


I'm afraid the only viable option I'm left with is to use Ignite's Compute 
feature:

- on the sender, group the keys by affinity.

- send each group along with the filter predicate to their affinity nodes using 
IgniteCompute.

- on each node, use getAll() to fetch the local keys and apply the filter.

- on the sender node, collect the results of the compute jobs into a map.


It's unfortunate that Ignite dropped that original API. What used to be a 
single API call is now a non-trivial algorithm and one have to worry about 
things like what happens if the grid topology changes while the compute jobs 
are executing, etc.

Can anyone think of any other less complex/more robust approach?

Thanks
Andrey

Hi Andrey,

Yes, you are right. ScanQuery scans all entries.
Perhaps, IgniteCache#invokeAll(keys, cacheEntryProcessor) with custom
processor will work for you.
https://ignite.apache.org/releases/2.1.0/javadoc/org/apache/ignite/IgniteCache.html#invokeAll(java.util.Set,%20org.apache.ignite.cache.CacheEntryProcessor,%20java.lang.Object...)

Thanks!

Retrieving multiple keys with filtering. Hello, I have a list of cache keys (up 
to a few hundred of them) and a filter predicate. I'd like to efficiently 
retrieve only those values that pass the...
