Can I keep a reference to hazelcast replicatedmap or should I look it up every time

Question

I am writing a hazelcast client in spring boot and I need to access a replicated map. Can I look this up in my singleton bean constructor, or should I call hz.getReplicatedMap("mymap") every time I need it?

The client should of course restarts of the hazelcast members/servers. I am using hazelcast 4.2.1 in case that matters.

Yes, you can look it up in your singleton bean constructor and keep using the reference.
