CacheStore Guide

CacheStore

CacheStore provides a ready-to-use solution for cache management.

According to Salesforce Platform Cache Best Practices, too many requests for small cached items are inefficient. A recommended way is to bundle these items into a large item to be cached. The problem is that we have a size limit for the single cached item. That means that we cannot put too huge an item into the cache.

CacheStore is hence created to offer an elegant way to solve this. Inside CacheStore, we manage a list of bundles, each of them is a Map. Whenever users put an item to cache, we will try to fit it into a suitable bundle, and then cache the whole bundle. If no suitable bundle is found, a new bundle will be created and added to the list.

To check the details, please see the implementation of CacheStore.

Here is how we use it.

CacheStore store = new CacheStore('Your Partition');
store.OrgCache.put('key', 'value');
String value = (String)store.get('key');

Cache Providers

After creating a CacheStore, we have two cache providers, OrgCache and SessionCache.

CacheStore store = new CacheStore('Your Partition');
store.OrgCache.put('key', 'value');
String value = (String)store.SessionCache.get('key');
