Caching ASP.NET Pages on Azure

Are there any special considerations when Caching ASP.NET Pages on Azure? I understand that page caching is managed in memory by IIS, but does it rely on the same providers as asp.net caching?

I need to cache hundreds of pages each averaging 100KB and I wonder if this will function on Azure as expected because there is a memory limitation considerations on Azure.

Solution

  • I'd recommend Azure Cache services for Output Caching ASP.NET pages. It's simple to configure and can be used by all VM nodes in your deployment.

    Azure Cache relies on DistributedCacheOutputCacheProvider. You can also control your Cache Quota size.
