In this article you will learn how to add a Custom Object to a Distributed Cache using the AppFabric Client DLLs in SharePoint.
Hello All.This is related to the Distributed Cache Service of SharePoint 2013. I got a chance to deliver the SharePoint 2013 training and one of the topics was Distributed Cache Services. I did a little research and read some good posts so that I can understand it thoroughly. After doing some research and reading from the MSDN and some good posts, I was a little confused and the following two questions were frequently in my mind.
So here I am trying to explain the preceding two points.The answer to first question is no. The Distributed Cache Service doesn't replace the existing caching techniques. The Distributed Cache Service provides an additional cache technique beyond the preceding options. SharePoint 2013 uses the Distributed Cache Service for some of the features, listed below:
Overview of Distributed Cache service.Now the answer to the second question is, unfortunately SharePoint doesn't itself provide the APIs for adding objects to and removing objects from a Distributed Cache. But there is a workaround for this. The workaround is to use AppFabric client DLLs.To show this, let's start step-by-step.
Thanks.
