/**
 * A distributed, strongly consistent map.
 * <p>
 * This map offers strong read-after-update (where update == create/update/delete)
 * consistency. All operations to the map are serialized and applied in a consistent
 * manner.
 * <p>
 * The stronger consistency comes at the expense of availability in
 * the event of a network partition. A network partition can be either due to
 * a temporary disruption in network connectivity between participating nodes
 * or due to a node being temporarily down.
 * </p><p>
 * All values stored in this map are versioned and the API supports optimistic
 * concurrency by allowing conditional updates that take into consideration
 * the version or value that was previously read.
 * </p><p>
 * This map does not allow null values. All methods can throw a ConsistentMapException
 * (which extends RuntimeException) to indicate failures.
