Class IndexConfig

java.lang.Object
com.hazelcast.config.IndexConfig
All Implemented Interfaces:
com.hazelcast.nio.serialization.impl.Versioned
public class IndexConfig extends Object implements com.hazelcast.nio.serialization.impl.Versioned
Configuration of an index. Hazelcast support three types of indexes: sorted index, hash index and bitmap index. Sorted indexes could be used with equality and range predicates and have logarithmic search time. Hash indexes could be used with equality predicates and have constant search time assuming the hash function of the indexed field disperses the elements properly. Bitmap indexes are similar to hash index. They are able to achieve a much higher memory efficiency for low cardinality attributes at the cost of reduced query performance.

Index could be created on one or more attributes.
