InvocableMap.Entry An InvocableMap.Entry contains additional information and exposes additional operations that the basic Map.Entry does not.
InvocableMap.EntryAggregator An EntryAggregator represents processing that can be directed to occur against some subset of the entries in an InvocableMap, resulting in a aggregated result.
