<p>If you have data that is best handled as a blob, such as structs that do not contain pointers, use the serializable type <code>CacheableBytes</code> . <code>CacheableBytes</code> is a blob class that implements the serialization for you.</p>
<p><code>CacheableBytes</code> also provides direct access to the blob data. Because it is not derived from the <code>CacheableKey</code> interface, <code>CacheableBytes</code> enables you to modify data in place and then put it into the region again to distribute the change.</p>
