com.scaleout.client.GridConnection
public abstract class GridConnection extends Object

Represents connection(s) to one or more servers in a ScaleOut in-memory data grid.

A GridConnection instance is thread-safe, long-lived, and maintains a pool of TCP connections to a ScaleOut in-memory data grid. Multiple Cache instances should use the same GridConnection instance if they are connecting to the same ScaleOut in-memory data grid.

Multiple GridConnection's can be used for a single client to connect to many ScaleOut in-memory data grids.
