Using expiration Expiration allows you to set either a lifespan or a maximum idle time on each key/value pair stored in the cache.  This can either be set cache-wide using the configuration, as described above, or it can be defined per-key/value pair using the Cache interface.  Any values defined per key/value pair overrides the cache-wide default for the specific entry in question.
