Re: [Cppcms-users] Caching files

[陈抒 <csf...@gm...>]

Hi,
 The way you mentioned can be called as in-process cache.
 When we talking about cache, there are a few kinds of cache technology,
in-process, out-of-process cache, local file cache, browser cache.
 For your case, you can cache these static files in your app, or cache them
with Nginx + Memcached/MongoDB. The latter way does not need you to
implement your cache algorithm.
 Another way is to use in-process & out-of-process cache together. Web
servers cache files in their process, but if the file is not found, it can
load it from remote cache server of database.
