As I see, many people agree that the term *"cache"* is outdated, but consider these changes too disruptive.
For me, keeping terminology up-to-date is important part of project development. If we change some of our core terms with more relevant ones, it indeed might cause confusion for current users, but in long term it will help new users to understand what Ignite is and what it isn't. And most short-term problems can easily be avoided by keeping @Deprecated IgniteCache.
