As ASP.NET Core continues to evolve, with the release of .NET 9, a new caching mechanism called HybridCache has been introduced, offering a blend of in-memory and distributed caching to address the limitations of traditional caching methods.
What is HybridCache?
HybridCache is a caching library designed to combine the best features of in-memory caching (L1) and distributed caching (L2). This dual-layer approach helps mitigate common issues like cache stampedes and race conditions, ensuring a more robust and efficient caching strategy.
Key Features of HybridCache
- Stampede Protection: Prevents multiple concurrent requests from overwhelming the cache by ensuring only one request fetches the data while others wait for the result.
