Cache Server Settings
NCache Cache Server Settings provide a comprehensive framework for fine-tuning the performance, connectivity, and reliability of distributed cache nodes. These server-side configurations, defined in the service configuration files, allow administrators to orchestrate low-level system behaviors—including socket management, memory allocation, cluster synchronization, and security protocols. By optimizing these settings, DevOps teams can ensure that NCache clusters are aligned with specific application throughput requirements and infrastructure constraints across Windows and Linux environments.
