Hello All, In my project I am trying to use Ignite for the first time. I am trying to store Protocol Buffer messages as value objects in my cache.
After spending a lot of time researching and experimenting, I've come to the conclusion that Protobuf and Ignite SQL do not play very well. The only way to get them to work is by converting from Protobuf -> Flat domain class and then store it in Ignite. If I do that then I lose all the type safety and expressivity of my domain classes. At this point I am ready to give up the possibility of using SQL and just use SCAN queries. As working with Protobuf objects is more native, and also these message would need to be eventually streamed out. Being able to work with an unconstrained domain object and the ability to do *Continuous queries* are very important requirement for me. Given that, my questions are: 1. Since I am unable to setup INDEXES, is that going to have a negative impact on my application - since I will be limited to using SCAN queries all the time. 2. Are INDEXES even used during SCAN queries ? (stupid question maybe) 3. Has anyone successfully used Protocol buffers with Ignite?
