A system and method can provide a flexible buffer management interface in a distributed data grid. The buffer manager in the distributed data grid can receive a request from a requester for a buffer in the distributed data grid, wherein the request contains at least one parameter that provides an indication on the size of the requested buffer. Then, the buffer manager can allocate a buffer based on the indication in the request and provide the allocated buffer to the requester, wherein an actual size of the buffer is determined by the buffer manager. |
