How do I configure Hazelcast for my application?

To configure Hazelcast, you need to set up a configuration file or use programmatic configuration. What specific settings are you looking to adjust?

I want to set up a cluster with multiple nodes.

You can configure a cluster by specifying the network settings in your Hazelcast configuration file. Make sure to define the multicast or TCP settings for node discovery.

Can you show me an example of the configuration file?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

<hazelcast>
    <network>
        <join>
            <multicast enabled="true">
                <multicast-group>224.2.2.3</multicast-group>
                <multicast-port>54327</multicast-port>
            </multicast>
        </join>
    </network>
</hazelcast>

What if I want to use TCP instead of multicast?

You can switch to TCP by configuring the join section like this:

<join>
    <tcp-ip enabled="true">
        <member>192.168.1.1:5701</member>
        <member>192.168.1.2:5701</member>
    </tcp-ip>
</join>
