Data Cache Support Background Population Of Cache Entries?
Aug 1, 2010
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?

My servers are behind F5 load balancer, I wanna use HttpRuntime.Cache in my web application but I didn't find out the way for to use that method for those using network load balancing server. Or can we store that HttpRuntime.Cache to sql server like the session we do in web.config file?

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?

What 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 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.

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 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?

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()?

Im building a image gallery which reads file from disk, create thumbnails on the fly and present them to the user. This works good, except the processing takes a bit time.
I then decided to cache the processed images using the ASP .NET Application Cache. When a image is processed I add the byte[] stream to the cache. As far as I know this is beeing saved into the system memory. And this is working perfect, the loading of the page is much faster.
My question is if there are thousands of images which gets cached in the Application Cache, will that affect the server performance in any way?

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?

I have a server control that I developed which generates navigation based on a third party CMS API. Currently I am caching this control using the PartialCaching attribute. The CMS uses cache key dependencies to invalidate the cache when a user makes an edit, however in the case of my server control it does not get invalidated and the updated navigation will not show up until the cache expiration set by the PartialCaching attribute.Here is my two part question:
What is the proper way to programmatically cache a server control, without using the PartialCaching attribute, and adding a cache key dependency?
Is it possible to continue to use the PartialCaching attribute and add a cache key dependency?

I am embarrassed to ask, but what is the best way to add key/value pair data in cache (HttpRuntime.Cache) to a DataTable?
I'm currently dumping the key/value pair data from cache into a HashTable, which becomes the DataSource for a Repeater object. Unfortunately, I cannot sort the data in the Hashtable and therefore thought a DataTable (being the DataSource for the Repeater) would solve my dilema.

There are asp files already running on (Production server)the windows 2000 iis webserver. Recently we had done changes and we deployed the changes on the production server. when we try to browse the url it shows the older data. not he changed data. Afer that i clear my browser cache then i tried, it worked as expected i could see the recen changes on the screen.
But some time i oculd see the recen changes and some time i couldn't see the cahnges. it shows the older details. I knew this is because of Cache issue.
every time we cannot clear the cache and run. because we have users more then 2000. so we cannot ask all of them to clear the cache and try.
Details:
File type : asp
Server : Windows 2000
IIS version : 6.0

I'm trying to build a process that will repopulate an item that was inserted into cache every 30 minutes. I inserted the item into Cached to expire after 30 minutes. I setup a delegate (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-s/library/system.web.caching.cacheitemremovedcallback(v=VS.90).aspx) to be called when the cached item expired. My goal was when the delegate was called was to rebuild the item and insert it back into cached. The issue I found with the MSDN article above was that it was using a holding the page instance open until the delegate was called. Instead of had it call another class that was static (vb shared). This caused a different problem -- the delegate lost context. When I tried to add back into the cache the HttpContext.Current was null. Is there a way I can repopulate an item in cache every 30 minutes in ASP.NET without keeping page instances around? Note, I cannot use a sliding expiration date because the content will change.

I have a weired problem. One of the pages in my application show's status of tasks in a table. I am using entity framework ( entity to object) to do all the data handling with DB. I noticed that even though the status is updated in DB, its not reflected on my webpage even after continuous refresh! If i stop the server and start the application again (currently running on VS2008 dev server) the updated data is displayed!
Am I seeing the cached data? how do I prevent this from happening?

I have the following .NET VB code to set and read objects in cache on a per user basis (i.e. a bit like session)
'' Public Shared Sub CacheSet(ByVal Key As String, ByVal Value As Object)
Dim userID As String = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name
HttpContext.Current.Cache(Key & "_" & userID) = Value
End Sub
Public Shared Function CacheGet(ByVal Key As Object)
Dim returnData As Object = Nothing
Dim userID As String = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name
returnData = HttpContext.Current.Cache(Key & "_" & userID)
Return returnData
End Function
I use these functions to hold user data that I don't want to access the DB for all the time. However, when the data is updated, I want the cached item to be removed so it get created again.
How do I make an Item I set disappear or set it to NOTHING or NULL?
