Hazelcast supports wildcard configuration for all distributed data structures that can be configured using Config, that is, for all except IAtomicLong, IAtomicReference. Using an asterisk (*) character in the name, different instances of maps, queues, topics, semaphores, etc. can be configured by a single configuration.
A single asterisk (*) can be placed anywhere inside the configuration name.
For instance, a map named com.hazelcast.test.mymap can be configured using one of the following configurations.
<map name="com.hazelcast.test.*">
...
</map>
<map name="com.hazel*">
...
</map>
<map name="*.test.mymap">
...
</map>
<map name="com.*test.mymap">
...
</map>
Or a queue 'com.hazelcast.test.myqueue':
<queue name="*hazelcast.test.myqueue">
...
</queue>
<queue name="com.hazelcast.*.myqueue">
...
</queue>
