Interface Partitionable

concurrent_map.go:17–31

Partitionable is the interface which should be implemented by key type. It is to define how to partition the entries.

// Partitionable is the interface which should be implemented by key type.
// It is to define how to partition the entries.
type Partitionable interface {
	// Value is raw value of the key
	Value() interface{}

	// PartitionKey is used for getting the partition to store the entry with the key.
	// E.g. the key's hash could be used as its PartitionKey
	// The partition for the key is partitions[(PartitionKey % m.numOfBlockets)]
	//
	// 1 Why not provide the default hash function for partition?
	// Ans: As you known, the partition solution would impact the performance significantly.
	// The proper partition solution balances the access to the different partitions and
	// avoid of the hot partition. The access mode highly relates to your business.
	// So, the better partition solution would just be designed according to your business.
	PartitionKey() int64
