I need to enable caching in my asp.net application, but I do not want to use the webserver's memory for holding cache objects. If I add the page directive for output caching will the page be stored in the asp.net cache object?

We are using HttpRuntime.Cache API in an ASP.NET to cache data retrieved from a database.
For this particular application, our database queries feature a LOT of parameters, so our cache keys look something like this:
table=table1;param1=somevalue1;param2=somevalue2;param3=somevalue3;param4=somevalue4;param5=somevalue5;param6=somevalue6... etc...
we have so many parameters that the cache key is several hundred characters long. is there a limit to the length of these cache keys? Internally, it is using a dictionary, so theoretically the lookup time should be constant. However, I wonder if we have potential to run into some performance/memory problem.
You know I have the way to Cache the data I've got from the SQL Server over data caching. In addition I can output cache web user controls.Whats about a web user control contains data from a SQL database? Does it make sense to cache the data and also cache the control?What is the best solution for the combination of these two components?
View 1 RepliesI want to use an Enum value for the types of VaryByCustom parameters I will support, is it possible to do this?
I tried setting it in the page itself
<%@ OutputCache Duration="600" VaryByParam="none"
VaryByCustom='<%=VaryByCustomType.IsAuthenticated.ToString(); %>' %>
But this returned the entire literal string "<%=VaryByCustomType.IsAuthenticated.ToString(); %>" inside my global.asax is there any way to do this either on the page itself or from the codebehind? Or is this just something I have to accept is purely magic strings and nothing I can do to add type safety to it?
We have a wfc layer that wraps the business classes and database access and use a client that lives on the database layer. Amongst our group we are attempting to form standards. Some want to have the client call the web method and pass the page they are requesting and the page size. Pass that to the database and then page in SQL Server use RowNum.Some want to cache the full list of objects in http cache on the service tier and page in memory. They concern here is memory use on the server.
Which would be best for a medium number of users with potentially large number of records to manage (say 30K) Is it better to cache them all in memory and work from there or page at the database as the application scales?
I'm running an ASP.NET MVC website where several page controllers are decorated with an output cache attribute like:
[OutputCache(Duration = someduration..., VaryByParam = "*")]
These are typically forms where some lookup data are drawn from a database. These data change rarely, so the cache duration is typically set to 24 hours. Anyway, my question is: when the sql server is updated with new data in this area, is there a way of forcing such pages to "refresh" rather than keeping the cached output? Or if this cannot be done, is there at least a way of clearing the whole cache for the website?
I've got a website that has a number of host headers. Depending on the host header, the results are different - both visually (theme'd) and data.
So lets imagine i have a website called 'Foo' - that returns search results (original, eh?).
Now, the same code runs both sites. It is physically the same server/website (using Host Headers) :-
[URL]
And the data is different for the same search result, based on the host name (ie. us results for [URL] results for [URL]
SO .. if i wish to use OutputCaching .. can this be handled / differ by the host name?
Suppose i have an controller action that i would like to output cache.
public class HomeController : Controller
{
[OutputCache(Duration=10, VaryByParam="none")]
public ActionResult Index()[code]....
I need to dynamically set dependency to an external file inside the code. How can i do that?
I have different urls that points to the same code
www.url1.com
www.url2.com
I need to use the cache, but if the asp net cache is enabled when someone access to www.url1.com next person accessing www.url2.com could get the previously cached data (www.url1.com)
I need to have ALL caches activated except this one.
I implemented : <%@ OutputCache Duration="43200" VaryByParam="none" location="Server" VaryByCustom="RawURL" %>
I have got a sitemap.xml with all url(about 12000) possible in my site.
I would now if it's judicious to create an application that will parse my sitemap in
order to request all url?
The Goal is caching all my web site to increase velocity.
I precise my question :Each page take about 10 sec to be created and the cache duration and cache duration is 12 hours
IIS7, WINDOWS WEB SERVER 2008, ASP.NET 4.0 Does the output cache work when using webgarden?
View 1 RepliesMy web client requires client-side output caching since it makes use of its own Back and Forward buttons (which basically just call the browser back/forward buttons).
The issue I'm having, however, is (of course) when the user signs out of the app. The client-side output cache remains so anyone can click the "back" button and it appears to be signed in again. I've researched a few solutions, but most involve server-side output caching or no output caching at all.
I've had success with server caching and HttpResponse.RemoveOutputCacheItem, but unfortunately I need the client side caching.
Is it at all possible to clear this client side output cache upon logging out?
On our website we use standard asp cache with duration set to 5h.
It works fine, but sometimes the publisher add some special content that need to be showed impatiently on many different sub-pages (example some promoted article).
That's what I need to do it's easy to use page like this:
[URL]
I want to clear SERVER SIDE CACHE.
I'm trying to cache a complex page with lots of controls on it so that if the user navigates to it later it will look like it did when he last saw it.The page has controls which post back and other controls are populated depending on the selections.
I'm using [Code]....
after the <@ Page directive.
What happens is that a postback gets the cached page, so no processing and it looks the same regardless of user selections. So far so good. But if I browse to another page and return by a link, the cached version is ignored and the default page is created again. This is more or less the opposite to what i want.
I attempted to use the validation callback to ensure that a postback resulted in a new version, and that worked, but it still ignored the cached page if it wasn't a postback.I realise that it will need more work to ensure each user gets their version of the page from the cache, but why bother if this doesn't work.

View 2 RepliesWhat are the "optimal" parameters for creating an AppFabric cache when you will be storing session state in the cache? MSDN Cache-Related Commands
Powershell command line:
New-Cache [-CacheName] <String> [-Eviction <String>] [-Expirable <String>] [-Force [<SwitchParameter>]] [-NotificationsEnabled <String>] [-Secondaries <Int32>] [-TimeToLive <Int64>]
[code]...
Since I don't want my sessions to be removed unless the session has been abandoned either via code or Session Timeout...For eviction, I would think "None" and for expireable, I would think False.I have tested and calling Session.Abandon does remove the object from the cache. I have also tested to see if by extending my session, the session object in cache is also extended. This does seem to work the "correct" way.
We have a data driven ASP.NET website which has been written using the standard pattern for data caching (adapted here from MSDN):
public DataTable GetData()
{
string key = "DataTable";
object item = Cache[key] as DataTable;
[code]...
The trouble with this is that the call to GetDataFromSQL() is expensive and the use of the site is fairly high. So every five minutes, when the cache drops, the site becomes very 'sticky' while a lot of requests are waiting for the new data to be retrieved.
What we really want to happen is for the old data to remain current while new data is periodically reloaded in the background. (The fact that someone might therefore see data that is six minutes old isn't a big issue - the data isn't that time sensitive). This is something that I can write myself, but it would be useful to know if any alternative caching engines (I know names like Velocity, memcache) support this kind of scenario. Or am I missing some obvious trick with the standard ASP.NET data cache?
I have use Nhibernate in my MVC Project by me known, Nhibernate have cache on Session and Object. now, I want use HttpContext.Current.Cache (system.web) for cache data something in project. my code same that have problem, haven't it. and that's right or wrong.
View 2 RepliesI would like to use output caching with WCF Data Services and although there's nothing specifically built in to support caching, there is an OnStartProcessingRequest method that allows me to hook in and set the cacheability of the request using normal ASP.NET mechanisms.
But I am worried about the worker process getting recycled due to excessive memory consumption if large responses are cached. Is there a way to specify an upper limit for the ASP.NET output cache so that if this limit is exceeded, items in the cache will be discarded?
I've seen the caching configuration settings but I get the impression from the documentation that this is for explicit caching via the Cache object since there is a separate outputCacheSettings which has no memory-related attributes.
Here's a code snippet from Scott Hanselman's post that shows how I'm setting the cacheability of the request.

It's great to be able to output cache child actions, but how do I invalidate that cache?

I've got a web application that runs of a state server. It looks like soon it may need to distributed and there will be two web servers behind a load balancer.
This works great for session state but my next challenge is Cache
My application leverages heavily of cache. I understand ASP.Net 4.0 will be offering more here but nothing much has been said about the how too.
There are two challenges that I face
1). Each webserver will have its own copy of cache whereas it would be more efficient to put this to a third server the same as session state is put to state server.
2). The real challenge is keeping cache in sync if a simple dataset derived from the database is changed my code dumps that cache item and reloads the cache. That's all well on one webserver but webserver number two wont know to drop that particular cache item and reload it. This could cause some unexpected problems in the application.
For scenario number 2 I could attempt to do some smart coding so server number two knows to dump the cache and reload it.
My guess is someone else has already been here before and there's probably a better implementation approach rather than writing extra code.
Does anyone know how I could achieve the goal of keeping Cache in sync between multiple webservers or even better farm Cache management to another server?
I want to be able to maintain certain objects between application restarts.
To do that, I want to write specific cached items out to disk in Global.asax Application_End() function and re-load them back on Application_Start().
I currently have a cache helper class, which uses the following method to return the cached value:
return HttpContext.Current.Cache[key];
Problem: during Application_End(), HttpContext.Current is null since there is no web request (it's an automated cleanup procedure) - therefore, I cannot access .Cache[] to retrieve any of the items to save to disk.
Question: how can I access the cache items during Application_End()?
I create a menu control in a user contol, named as RightUserrControl.ascx.
and i kept this RightUserrControl.ascx in nearly in 200 pages.
every thing is working fine , but when ever i am going to any page the page loading is very slow, nearly each page is taking 1 minute to load.
set caching for the user control, if this is the case , do i need to declare output cache in all 200 pages or is there any alternative way to resolve this issue.
