I have used LinkedHashMap with accessOrder true along with allowing a maximum of 500 entries at any time as the LRU cache for data. But due to scalability issues I want to move on to some thread-safe alternative. ConcurrentHashMap seems good in that regard, but lacks the features of accessOrder and removeEldestEntry(Map.Entry e) found in LinkedHashMap. Can anyone point to some link or help me to ease the implementation.
How to implement ConcurrentHashMap with features similar in LinkedHashMap?

The moment you use another data structure along with concurrenthashmap, the atomicity of the operations sucha adding a new item in concurrenthashmap and adding in other data structure cant be guaranteed without additional synchronization such as ReadWriteLock which will degrade performance
