Azure distributed cache for IaaS VMs

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18214633

Question

Is it possible to use Azure shared cache service from load-balanced IaaS VMs? Does it exists at all? I can't seem to find caching service in management portal.

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

If you're using IaaS with Windows Server, you may want to explore using Server AppFabric Caching. This gives you dedicated resources, co-hosted in your Azure VM's at a lower latency and without the quota's imposed by the shared caching service.

OTHER TIPS

You should also take a look at the Windows Azure Cache Service (Preview) that has just been launched. It supports distributed caching from IaaS VMs. Read more here to find out if you need this.
