Performance Tuning - Caching Strategy

Caching Strategy

Caching is a fundamental method of removing performance bottlenecks that are the result of slow access to data. Caching improves performance by retaining frequently used information in high speed memory, which reduces access time and thus improves performance. Caching is an effective manner of improving performance in situations where the principle of locality of reference The methods used to determine which data is stored in progressively faster storage are collectively called caching strategies. Examples are ASP.NET cache, CPU cache etc.
