/**
 * This interface provides a rich API for working with distributed queues based on In-Memory Data Grid.
 * <p>
 * <h1 class="header">Overview</h1>
 * Cache queue provides an access to cache elements using typical queue API. Cache queue also implements
 * {@link Collection} interface and provides all methods from collections including
 * {@link Collection#addAll(Collection)}, {@link Collection#removeAll(Collection)}, and
 * {@link Collection#retainAll(Collection)} methods for bulk operations. Note that all
 * {@link Collection} methods in the queue may throw {@link IgniteException} in case
 * of failure.
 * <p>
 * <h1 class="header">Bounded vs Unbounded</h1>
 * Queues can be {@code unbounded} or {@code bounded}. {@code Bounded} queues can
 * have maximum capacity. Queue capacity can be set at creation time and cannot be
 * changed later. Here is an example of how to create {@code bounded} {@code LIFO} queue with
 * capacity of {@code 1000} items.
 * <pre name="code" class="java">
 * IgniteQueue<String> queue = cache().queue("anyName", LIFO, 1000);
 * ...
 * queue.add("item");
 * </pre>
 * For {@code bounded} queues <b>blocking</b> operations, such as {@link #take()} or {@link #put(Object)}
 * are available. These operations will block until queue capacity changes to make the operation
 * possible.
 * <h1 class="header">Collocated vs Non-collocated</h1>
 * Queue items can be placed on one node or distributed throughout grid nodes
 * (governed by {@code collocated} parameter). {@code Non-collocated} mode is provided only
 * for partitioned caches. If {@code collocated} parameter is {@code true}, then all queue items
 * will be collocated on one node, otherwise items will be distributed through all grid nodes.
 * Unless explicitly specified, by default queues are {@code collocated}.
 * <p>
 * Here is an example of how create {@code unbounded} queue
 * in non-collocated mode.
 * <pre name="code" class="java">
 * IgniteQueue<String> queue = cache().queue("anyName", 0 /*unbounded*/, false /*non-collocated*/);
 * ...
 * queue.add("item");
 * </pre>
 * <h1 class="header">Creating Cache Queues</h1>
 * Instances of distributed cache queues can be created by calling the following method
 * on {@link Ignite} API:
 * <ul>
 *     <li>{@link Ignite#queue(String, int, org.apache.ignite.configuration.CollectionConfiguration)}</li>
 * </ul>
 * @see Ignite#queue(String, int, org.apache.ignite.configuration.CollectionConfiguration)
