3.2. Product Changes
3.2.1. Remote Client-Server Configuration Changes
The configuration files for remote client-server mode have been updated in JBoss Data Grid 7.1, and there have been numerous changes to the included configuration files. It is strongly recommended to use the base configurations included in JBoss Data Grid 7.1, and then apply any modifications to these base files. The new configurations result in increased performance, and provide a baseline for further tunings.
In addition, it is no longer required to define a mode for clustered caches. Starting in JBoss Data Grid 7.1 the mode defaults to SYNC.
