Grid computing

JBoss DataGrid is also a computing grid; nodes can be used to perform distributed computing. JBoss Datagrid provides various mechanisms to empower data stored in these nodes:

• Distributed streams that aim to transform a cache entry set into a Java 8 Stream
• Distributed executors that extend the Java Executor stack to schedule tasks on cache instances

Distributed Streams

Data grid can also be used as a grid computing engine to perform various computation tasks on large and distributed datasets. Users can turn all the cache entries of a local, replication, or invalidation cache into a regular Java Stream using the following operations:

cache.entrySet().stream()
cache.entrySet().parallelStream()

So, instead of iterating...
