Cache Database Dependency [Deprecated]

Nowadays, most applications that heavily use database/data source calls incorporate distributed caching to the cache-expensive query result set, which helps to boost application performance and scalability. For this purpose, any data changes in the data source should be invalidated and removed from the cache. NCache provides a mechanism, called database dependency to invalidate data when changes occur in real-time.

Moreover, these databases/data sources use relational models, but there are no relational models in caches where data exists simply as key-value pairs. To overcome this, NCache, along with database dependency offers various techniques letting users to provide dependencies of singular items on others and vice versa.
