Type Parameters:

K - key type

All Superinterfaces:

Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

AttributePartitioningStrategy, DefaultPartitioningStrategy, StringAndPartitionAwarePartitioningStrategy, StringPartitioningStrategy

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface
public interface PartitioningStrategy<K>
extends Serializable

PartitioningStrategy allows keys to be located on the same member. This causes related data to be stored in the same location. (See data-affinity.)
