Distributed Cache for .NET
Modern .NET applications often need to scale across multiple servers or containers.
In such environments, a distributed cache allows applications to share cached data across instances.
A distributed cache stores data in multiple nodes and allows applications to retrieve cached values regardless of which server processes a request.
Why Distributed Caching​
Distributed caching improves:
- Application performance
- Scalability
- Fault tolerance
- Load distribution
Common use cases include:
- Session storage
- API response caching
- Configuration storage
- Shared application state
Clustron as a Distributed Cache​
Clustron provides a high‑performance distributed cache designed specifically for .NET applications.
Features include:
- Distributed key‑value storage
- Horizontal scaling across multiple nodes
- TTL‑based expiration
- High‑performance async APIs
- Cluster‑wide consistency
Clustron can be used as a Redis alternative for .NET caching workloads while also providing additional coordination capabilities.
Beyond Caching​
Unlike traditional caches, Clustron also provides distributed coordination primitives such as:
- Distributed locks
- Leader election
- Transactions
- Watch notifications
These primitives enable developers to build more advanced distributed systems.
