Caching Over Distributed Application On Servers?
Aug 22, 2010
I have a web application that will be distributed over 2 servers and the Database will be on a server other than the 2 servers. so application on each server will access database exists in another server.I am using caching in the application and when data changed the cache is cleared and the problem now how each server will feel with cache changes on the other server?
I have tried SQLCache dependency before and i have heard about Memcached, Velocity and Enterprise cache so which one will be more efficient and optimal for this case? and i have another solution to create webservice method on each application and when the cache is cleared in one application it will request the webservice method on the other application to clear cache there.
Which technique is more efficient and optimal in performance and security? and is SQLCache dependency related to SQL database only or can be applicable to other databases like Oracle?
Note: I am using load balancer to distribute requests coming for the application among the 2 server

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?

We are using Two servers for our application managed by a load balancer. One of which server contains Windows server 2003 & other one contains Windows server 2008. When a request is served by windows 2003 server and its subsequent goes to the other one (2008 server). Users gets log out. Are we need same Operating systems on both systems because( when request served by 2008, and subsequent on 2003 is served without any issue).

We have built an asp.net application according to 3 tier architecture, but Data Tier and Application logic lies on the same server. Our client needs that to be deployed in 2 different servers. Only front end in web server DAL & BLL in app server. Database is in different server. All 3 servers are at different physical locations. How can we commuicate between these servers and our applicaton tiers? is there any option in IIS so that we can deploy only back end code in another server? what is the best approach to communicate between different application tiers when they are physically apart?

I want to create a generic web.config file for different web servers in VB.NET. So, depending on the server configuration requirements, applications can retrieve all values from that generic configuration file.
Is this possible? How would I do this?

I am trying to set up my web site on a stand alone server using Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6 which will access SQL server database (2008) on windows 2008 R2 server (also not in the domain) I am using form authentication and I have configured a custom identity account in IIS6. The local account is on both servers with same password and I have registered the account using aspnet_regiis.exe -ga The application pool in my iis6 has the custom local account set as the identity and my web.config file has the appropriate tags in the system.web element <identity impersonate="true" />
The problem is the local account does not seem to get passed to the sql server. Right now my iis settings are anonymous access (using the local acct vs isr) and no authentication specified under that - I did try Integrated and basic but it prompts for the username and password which I do not want. One article I read stated this: windows authentication does not support delegation (passing credentials from one server to another) and is limited to the one hop rule, only a primary token can be passed to a second server. windows
authentication on iis (all versions) gives the thread a secondary(impersonation) token which can not be used to access any network resouce

I have an application written in asp.net c# and hosted on IIS6. There are an 'Image' folder with 3-subfolders. These folders contained images of type 'jpg','gif','png' etc. Images are very huge in size and in numbers. On the application every page has some images needs to open/show, due to the size of images my application get slower and slower.
I know there are some techniques to Cache image folders at client machine or some other methods. I have no access on IIS. So, I need some httphandler or httpmodules which provide something like Image-caching.
I tried this : codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/CachingImagesInASPNET.aspx The problem is I have to add an extra extension '.ashx' to every image link. There is no problem with images are loading dynamically but it has trouble with images need to embose a manual link. Also, this is working fine upto around 1000s images.

What's the best way to cache web site user data in asp.net 4.0? I have a table of user settings that track all kinds of user or session specific stuff like the state of UI elements (open/closed), preferences, whether some dialog has been dismissed, and so on. Since these don't change very often (for each user, anyway) but are looked up frequently it seems sensible to cache them. What's the best way? These are the options I've identified...
Store them in HttpContext.Current.Session directly (e.g. Session["setting_name"]) Store them in HttpContext.Current.Cache Use a global static dictionary, e.g. static ConcurrentDictionary<string,string> where the key is a unique userID + setting name value Store a dictionary object for each session in Session or Cache What's the most sensible way to do this? How does Session differ from Cache from a practical standpoint? Would it ever make sense to store a dictionary as a single session/cache object versus just adding lots of values directly? I would think lookups might be faster, but updates would be slower since I'd have to re-store the entire dictionary when it changed.
What problems or benefits might there be to using a global static cache? Seems like this would be the fastest, but I'd have to manage the size. I could just flush it periodically if it hits a certain size, or keep a cross reference queue and remove things oldest first when it gets to a certain size. Does this make any sense or is it just trying too hard?

Pardon if this is more serverfault vs. stackoverflow. It seems to be on the border.
We have an application that caches a large amount of product data for an e-commerce application using ASP.NET caching. This is a dictionary object with 65K elements, and our calculations put the object's size at ~10GB. Problem:
The amount of memory the object consumes seems to be far in excess of our 10GB calculation. BIGGEST CONCERN: We can't seem to use over 60% of the 32GB in the server.
What we've tried so far:
In machine.config/system.web (sf doesn't allow the tags, pardon the formatting):
processModel autoConfig="true" memoryLimit="80"
In web.config/system.web/caching/cache (sf doesn't allow the tags, pardon the formatting):
privateBytesLimit = "20000000000" (and 0, the default of course)
percentagePhysicalMemoryUsedLimit = "90"
Environment:
Windows 2008R2 x64
32GB RAM
IIS7
Nothing seems to allow us to exceed the 60% value.
See screenshot of taskman.

I have about 50 web-sites, load-balanced across 5 web-servers. They all use Enterprise Library Caching, and access the same Caching database. The items in the Caching database are refreshed every few hours, using an ICacheItemRefreshAction implementation.I want to guarantee that only one web-site ever refreshes the cache, by putting the refresh code in a critical section. If the web-sites were running in a single app-pool on a single server, I could use a lock()If the web-sites were running in separate app-pools on a single server, I could use a Mutex.However, these will not ensure the critical section across multiple web-servers.Currently, I am creating a new key in the caching database to act as a mutex. This will generally work, but I can see a slim chance that 2 processes could enter the critical section.
public class TakeLongTimeToRefresh : ICacheItemRefreshAction
{
#region ICacheItemRefreshAction Members

I have a quick question about best practices and especially expected performance for the following scenario:
If I want to query data from multiple servers that contain schematically identital sql databases, would having each server provide a web method that a single client application can consume be an appropriate (and relatively fast) solution?
The data just needs to be consolidated on the client end, where several web methods would have to be consumed serially (or in parallel?) to provide the data to the client. Each server would also be implementing Entity Framework as an ORM.
Performance is my main concern here, would it turn out excessively slow as we start to scale up to more and more servers?

I've a web server and a separate SQL server. I'm trying to use transaction scope to ensure that SQL queries are completed with my linq queries.
I wrap everything with this
using (TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope())
I want to know where I need to install DTC. Do I need to install it on the IIS 7.5 box AND the SQL server? Do I need to unblock some ports? Are there any security risk in doing so?
I've setup this up once before but don't remember how. If I can't get access to DTC then is there any other way to ensure a lINQ and sql query is atomic?

i have implemented an image preloader using javascript inside my mvc 2 web app, in order to display an animated "loading" image .gif while sequentially displaying page images.I have also implemented caching using a cache profile for the controller action that displays the specific page ([OutputCache(CacheProfile = "LongCache")]).The problem is that the image preloader javascript is called when caching is applied. I was wondering whether i could, somehow, use the image preloader code only when the page gets refreshed and not when the cached version is rendered.

I have a problem that i'm sure will not be hard to fix for anyone who has been using CR for some time.
To start I have created a program in VB2008, that uses a MS Access data file, I can connect to it with no problem and can also add data and amend data, so all seems to work perfectly. I have published it and it once again runs perfectly on another/s machines.
I have now a requirement for a number of reports so have choosen CR for this purpose. I have connected the report to the database and that runs with no problems at all, that is untill I try to run it on another machine, it seems not to be able to find the database and comes up with a panel wanting me to log in with a password and Admin name.
I feel it's proberly a problem with the path of the database, I have tried so many time with diferent data files but with no success.

I'm planning on making a website and host it on my dedicated server.but I would also like the website to be available when the dedicated server (from here on revered to as server) is offline for what reason that maybe.How would I go about doing this? the server would get the domain name from my webserver. I already set up the DNS's to do so, but incase the server cannot be contacted I would like the webserver to take over or something?

As far as it's an academic project we do not have funds to buy server and run CC.net on it.. Are there any charge free solutions? Or at least cheap ones.I'm asking rather about the service on the internet, not software solution

without using a database i wanted a file to point to the newest revision of a file. Someone suggested using a shortcut. Knowing i can rewrite file.ext to file.ext.lnk i thought it was a great idea. Then i tried it, my server (VS 2010rc) serves the shortcut rather then the file. Not what i wanted...How do i serve the file the shortcut is pointing to? NOTE: I am planing to use windows 2008 as my server so a solution should work on that as well. The OS i am running is windows 7.
