NCache, a distributed, linearly scalable and fast in-memory key-value store allows the caching of objects to reduce database trips and easily scale higher loads. Similarly, Redis is also a distributed caching solution but lacks key features like SQL & LINQ Support, Client Cache (InProc) and Peer-to-Peer Clustering etc. For .NET Redis client applications, NCache provides…
NCache, an in-memory distributed cache, keeps your data intact in a temporary storage for a faster experience of read and write operations. We have seen NCache do wonders with the speed when it comes to performing operations on the cache store. However, keeping NCache synchronized with the main data source is a major challenge when…

The communication can be of several types such as browser communicating with the web APIs and web APIs communicating with other web APIs on the behalf of the users and so on. Authentication…
Whenever we talk about providing ease of access and manipulation of objects, the subject of Object Relational Mappers (ORMs) is bound to come up. ORMs such as Entity Framework Core and NHibernate help in managing efficient mapping of Plain Old CLR Object (POCO) instances to database information, managing associations, constraints, etc. However, using code-to-SQL functionality…
Blazor is being adopted rapidly by organizations looking to create interactive Web UIs with .NET. It allows you to create the applications using C# instead of undergoing the hassle of JavaScript and all your server-side and client-side logic is consolidated in the .NET space. Blazor uses the ASP.NET Core SignalR implementation for messaging between client…
