I have undestood that the maximum serialized size of an item in the Co Located Azure Shared Cache (preview) is 8mb. I am currently using the Microsoft.Web.DistributedCache.DistributedCacheSessionStateStoreProvider to store my session state in the cache.
My question is if the session (all session key/values) is serialized as one item or is it each key by it self that can not exceed 8MB?
So if i have 10 keys with 1 mb of data each is it exceding the 8MB limit?
I know that you arent suppose to store that large objects in session (and I don´t 99% of the time) its just to know how some edge cases will behave in my application.
In my experience, what you say is correct. I've used the Microsoft report viewer control which puts a large amount of data into session with a guid key each time you run a new report and if I don't clean out these session keys I see this error.
