/**
 * Multi-datacenter aware caching interface
 *
 * All operations go to the local datacenter cache, except for delete(),
 * touchCheckKey(), and resetCheckKey(), which broadcast to all datacenters.
 *
 * This class is intended for caching data from primary stores.
 * If the get() method does not return a value, then the caller
 * should query the new value and backfill the cache using set().
 * When querying the store on cache miss, the closest DB replica
 * should be used. Try to avoid heavyweight DB master or quorum reads.
 * When the source data changes, a purge method should be called.
 * Since purges are expensive, they should be avoided. One can do so if:
 *   - a) The object cached is immutable; or
 *   - b) Validity is checked against the source after get(); or
 *   - c) Using a modest TTL is reasonably correct and performant
 *
 * The simplest purge method is delete().
 *
 * Instances of this class must be configured to point to a valid
 * PubSub endpoint, and there must be listeners on the cache servers
 * that subscribe to the endpoint and update the caches.
 *
 * Broadcasted operations like delete() and touchCheckKey() are done
 * synchronously in the local datacenter, but are relayed asynchronously.
 * This means that callers in other datacenters will see older values
 * for however many milliseconds the datacenters are apart. As with
 * any cache, this should not be relied on for cases where reads are
 * used to determine writes to source (e.g. non-cache) data stores.
 *
 * All values are wrapped in metadata arrays. Keys use a "WANCache:" prefix
 * to avoid collisions with keys that are not wrapped as metadata arrays. The
 * prefixes are as follows:
 *   - a) "WANCache:v" : used for regular value keys
 *   - b) "WANCache:s" : used for temporarily storing values of tombstoned keys
 *   - c) "WANCache:t" : used for storing timestamp "check" keys

         *   - a) Calling delete() on entity change *and* creation, before DB commit
         *   - b) Keeping transaction duration shorter than delete() hold-off TTL
         *
         * However, pre-snapshot values might still be seen if an update was made
         * in a remote datacenter but the purge from delete() didn't relay yet.
         *
         * Consider using getWithSetCallback() instead of get() and set() cycles.

         * This should only be called when the underlying data (being cached)
         * changes in a significant way. This deletes the key and starts a hold-off
         * period where the key cannot be written to for a few seconds (HOLDOFF_TTL).
         * This is done to avoid the following race condition:
         *   - a) Some DB data changes and delete() is called on a corresponding key
         *   - b) A request refills the key with a stale value from a lagged DB
         *   - c) The stale value is stuck there until the key is expired/evicted
         *
         * This is implemented by storing a special "tombstone" value at the cache
         * key that this class recognizes; get() calls will return false for the key
         * and any set() calls will refuse to replace tombstone values at the key.
         * For this to always avoid stale value writes, the following must hold:
         *   - a) Replication lag is bounded to being less than HOLDOFF_TTL; or
         *   - b) If lag is higher, the DB will have gone into read-only mode already
         *
         * Note that set() can also be lag-aware and lower the TTL if it's high.
         *
         * When using potentially long-running ACID transactions, a good pattern is
         * to use a pre-commit hook to issue the delete. This means that immediately
         * after commit, callers will see the tombstone in cache in the local datacenter
         * and in the others upon relay. It also avoids the following race condition:
         *   - a) T1 begins, changes a row, and calls delete()
         *   - b) The HOLDOFF_TTL passes, expiring the delete() tombstone
         *   - c) T2 starts, reads the row and calls set() due to a cache miss
         *   - d) T1 finally commits
         *   - e) Stale value is stuck in cache
         *
         * Example usage:
         * @code

         *     ... <execute some stuff> ...
