Using Hazelcast IMDG as JPA second level cache in Wildfly (15)

Anybody knowing a way to use Hazelcast IMDG as JPA/Hibernate second level cache in Wildfly 15?

In my setup, Wildlfy is always using builtin Infinispan as soon as I activate 2nd level caching in my persistence.xml using

<property name="hibernate.cache.use_second_level_cache" value="true" />

It seems that property hibernate.cache.region.factory_class isn't evaluated at all.

Solution

  • with 

    <property name="wildfly.jpa.regionfactory" value="false" />

    it is possible to deactivate Wildfly's default behaviour of direct coupling to Infinispan. This makes it possible to use another 2nd level caching backend. (E.g. Hazelcast)
