NCache Playground
The NCache Playground allows users to explore, experiment with, and learn about NCache. It lets you interact with .NET and Java code samples and perform real-world testing and prototyping. It even lets you explore how to manage and monitor caches to give you the full experience of NCache deployment. This section covers all of this in detail and even considers any issues users may encounter when doing so.
