Class MerkleTreeConfig

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    DataSerializable, IdentifiedDataSerializable, com.hazelcast.nio.serialization.impl.Versioned

    public class MerkleTreeConfig
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements IdentifiedDataSerializable, com.hazelcast.nio.serialization.impl.Versioned
    Configuration for a merkle tree. The merkle tree is a data structure used for efficient comparison of the difference in the contents of large data structures. The precision of such a comparison mechanism is defined by the depth of the merkle tree.

    A larger depth means that a data synchronization mechanism will be able to pinpoint a smaller subset of the data structure contents in which a change occurred. This causes the synchronization mechanism to be more efficient. On the other hand, a larger tree depth means the merkle tree will consume more memory.

    A smaller depth means the data synchronization mechanism will have to transfer larger chunks of the data structure in which a possible change happened. On the other hand, a shallower tree consumes less memory. The depth must be between 2 and 27 (exclusive). The default depth is 10.

    As the comparison mechanism is iterative, a larger depth will also prolong the duration of the comparison mechanism. Care must be taken to not have large tree depths if the latency of the comparison operation is high. The default depth is 10.

      • getDepth

        public int getDepth()
        Returns the depth of the merkle tree. The default depth is 10.
      • setDepth

        public MerkleTreeConfig setDepth​(int depth)
        Sets the depth of the merkle tree. The depth must be between 27 and 2 (exclusive).
        Parameters:
        depth - the depth of the merkle tree
        Returns:
        the updated config
        Throws:
        InvalidConfigurationException - if the depth is greater than 27 or less than 2
      • isEnabled

        @Deprecated
        public boolean isEnabled()
        Deprecated.
        use getEnabled() instead.
        Returns if the merkle tree is enabled.
        Returns:
        true if the merkle tree is enabled, false otherwise
      • getEnabled

        public java.lang.Boolean getEnabled()
        Returns if the merkle tree is enabled.
        Returns:
        TRUE if the merkle tree is enabled, FALSE if disabled or null if user did not explicitly configure Merkle trees, so it may or may not be enabled by Hazelcast.
      • isEnabledSet

        @PrivateApi
        public boolean isEnabledSet()
        Method introduced for client protocol compatibility.
        Returns:
        whether enabled field is set or not.
      • setEnabled

        public MerkleTreeConfig setEnabled​(boolean enabled)
        Enables or disables the merkle tree.
        Parameters:
        enabled - true if enabled, false otherwise.
        Returns:
        the updated config
