Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing distributed caching in a transactional processing environment. The caching system can include a plurality of layers that provide a caching feature for a plurality of data types, and can be configured for use with a plurality of caching providers. A common data structure can be provided to store serialized bytes of each data type, and architecture information of a source platform executing a cache-setting application, so that a cache-getting application can use the information to convert the serialized bytes to a local format. A proxy server can be provided to act as a client to a distributed in-memory grid, and advertise services to a caching client, where each advertised service can match a cache in the distributed in-memory data grid, such as Coherence. The caching system can be used to cache results from a service.
