In this article, we will go through how a distributed caching solution can drastically improve the overall performance and throughput of your microservices-based application. In a typical microservices-based application, multiple microservices work together while remaining loosely coupled and scalable. The application has services that are needed to satisfy core business requirements such as keeping track…
Native data structures offer a conventional method of storing and retrieving data. Through their implementation, they provide concurrency to your standalone applications – which is great, except that they are only limited to the threads inside an application process. And with scalable applications running on more than one server, the need to share the state…
Today’s applications are highly transactional and can scale for high transactions by running in a load-balanced, multi-server deployment. At the same time, many of these applications need to run in multiple data centers. This could be done for disaster recovery, where one active data center has disaster recovery as a passive data center that is…
With the rapid increase in high traffic applications, scalability is the need for this era. Due to this reason, distributed caching systems have made their way into the hearts and souls of today’s applications. NCache – the leading distributed cache for .NET applications, is no exception to this. When we generally consider a caching system,…
Cosmos DB is Microsoft’s new NoSQL store released in the Azure cloud. Unlike relational databases, it is scalable as it is a hosted database service, so it enjoys a lot of popularity among high transaction .NET and .NET Core applications. However, using Cosmos DB, you need to be wary of performance bottlenecks and cost overhead…
Many ASP.NET applications today are high-traffic and are used by tens of thousands of users. These applications face performance issues because accessing the database is slow, especially when network traffic is high. This latency is now becoming unaffordable as thousands of users are accessing these applications. To resolve this performance constraint, ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core…
Some of the very basic needs for .NET applications to stay competitive in today’s market are to be extremely responsive and scalable. The bottleneck in the way of achieving these benchmarks is your relational database. This is a two fold bottleneck, first the reads from disk are very inefficient and time consuming. Secondly, you cannot…
ASP.NET View State is a client side state management mechanism, which is used to save page and control values. ASP.NET View State is a hidden field on the page as an encoded Base64 string. It is sent to client as part of every response and is returned to the server by the client as part…
Microsoft Azure provides a platform for ASP.NET applications in the cloud. Very often, these applications are high transaction and mission-critical in nature. Therefore, it is very important that these applications are scalable and result in no data loss if a web server goes down at any time. NCache Details …
