REST gateway example: Creating dynamic maps

You can use map templates to create maps as your application requires.

Dynamic map creation

The first operation to a map that matches the map template but has not yet been created results in the creation of a new dynamic map. As an example, to create a new dynamic map, you might use the following URI in a GET, DELETE, or POST operation:

http://mydatagrid.ibm.com/resources/datacaches/MyDataGrid/MyMap1/a.key

In the previous example, the map created dynamically is MyMap1, where the map template name is MyMap.*, and the template attribute in that map is set to true.
