Caching Concepts
Caching Concepts
 Caching is a technique used to improve the performance by keeping the frequently

accessed data in memory.
 It is used to retain the pages or data access HTTP requests and reuse them without
the expense of re-creating them.
 It saves time and resources.
 It is used to create high-performance and scalable web applications.

Types of Caching
Types of Caching
 Page Output Caching
It is used to catch the entire page.The next time that any user requests the
same page the page is retrieved from the cache.
 Partial Caching
It is used to catch a regions of a page. You can apply different caching

policies to different areas of a page.
 Data Caching
Caching the database objects and any other data and use them in multiple
ASP.NET Pages.
 DataSouce Caching
Caching with different ASP.NET DataSource Controls such as SQLDataSource &

ObjectDataSource controls. It caches the data that it represents

Output Cache Attributes
Output Cache Attributes..
 The VaryByParam attribute causes a new instance of a page to be cached when a
different parameter is passed to the page(The parameter may be query string
parameter or form parameter)
 You can assign two special values to the VaryByParam attribute:-

 None -> Causes any query string or form parameter to be ignored. Only one
version of the page is cached.
 * -> Causes a new cached version of the page to be created whenever there is
a change in query string or form parameter passed to the page.
 The VaryByControl attribute enables you to generate different cache versions of a

page depending on the value of a particular control in the page. It is useful when
you need to create a single-page Master-Detail Form.
Output Cache Attributes..
 The VaryByHeader attribute to create different cached versions of a page when the
value of a particular browser header changes. The browser headers are transmitted
with each page request, including Accept-Language, User-Agent, Cookie
 The VaryByCustom attribute to create different cached versions of a page that

depend on the type of browser being used requested to the page.The browser
attribute is the type of browser and major version.
Partial Page Caching
Partial Page / Fragment Caching
Fragment Caching in Web Page
Post Cache Substitution
Post Cache Substitution
 Used when we want to cache the whole page but also need some dynamic region
inside the cached page is known as Post Cache Substitution.
 There two ways to implement the Post Cache Substitution
 Response.Write Substitution
 Substitution Control
User Controls with Substitution
Container Page
Data Source Caching
SDS Cache Dependency
Data Caching
Data Caching
 The cache provides a simple dictionary interface that allows programmers to

easily place objects in and retrieve them from the cache. In the simplest case,
placing an item in the cache is just like adding an item to a dictionary:
Cache["mykey"] = myValue;
The existence of the object should be checked before retrieving the data from the
cache:
myValue = Cache["mykey"];
if(myValue != null ) {
DisplayData(myValue);
}
Data Caching..
 Scavenging means that the cache attempts to remove infrequently used or

unimportant items if memory becomes scarce. Programmers who want to control
how scavenging occurs can provide hints to the scavenger when items are inserted
into the cache that indicate the relative cost of creating the item and the relative
rate at which the item must be accessed to remain useful.
 Expiration allows programmers to give cache items lifetimes, which can be explicit
(for example, expire at 6:00) or can be relative to an item's last use. After an item
has expired, it is removed from the cache and future attempts to retrieve it return
the null value unless the item is reinserted into the cache.
SQL Cache Dependency
SQL Cache Dependency Configuration
SQL Dependency Attribute
Cache Profiles
Cache Profiles
 Cache configuration is used to cache the profiles in web.config system and then
use those profiles in multiple asp.net pages.
 Cache Profiles allows cache setting for hundreds of page to be displayed and
managed centrally from configuration.
Cache Dependency
Cache Dependency
 Cache dependencies allow the validity of a cache item to be based on an external
file or on another cache item. If a dependency changes, the cache item is
invalidated and removed from the cache.
 File Dependency
Cache item depend on the external file
 Key Dependency
Cache item depend on the another cache item
 SQLCache Dependency
Dependent on the database item
Page Cache File Dependency
Data Cache Dependency
Page Cache Dependency
Cascaded Dependency
Cache Life Time
Cache Life Time
 Absolute Expiration
You can specify the actual time period after which the cached item will be
removed from the memory.
 Sliding Expiration
You specify the time period after which the cached time will be removed from
the memory after it is last accessed
Absolute and Sliding Expiration
Cache Event
Cache Event Handling
Cache Item Removed Callback
Cache Item Removed Callback..
SQL Cache Invalidation
 Enables you to make the cache item dependent on the entry in the database, so
the cache entry will be only cleared when the data in the database is changed.
 Types : Polling based, SQL Notification based
For Pooling based <%@ OutputCache Duration="999999"

SqlDependency="Pubs:Authors" VaryByParam="none" %>
For SQL Notificated based <%@ OutputCache Duration="999999"

SqlDependency="CommandNotification" VaryByParam="none" %>
