Cum sa definesti un provider custom pentru cache

.NET 4.0 ne-a adus si posibilitatea de a controla output caching. Pana in momentul acesta puteam sa controlam obiectele la care sa se faca cache. Daca de exemplu avem o actiune la care doream sa facem cache, puteam sa folosim atributul OutputCacheAttribute, prin care puteam defini durata la care sa se faca cache si prin ce parametri acest cache sa difere.
[OutputCache(Duration=20, VaryByParam="none")]
public ActionResult GetItems()
{
// Executa ceva.
}
In momentul in care se face un call spre actiunea GetItems, se verifica daca aceasta exista in cache si daca cache-ul este valid( nu a expirat iar parametri trasmisi prin VaryByParam sunt identici). Daca conditiile sunt indeplinite atunci rezultatul se incarca automat din cache si se trimite mai departe, altfel se executa actiunea GetItems, iar rezultatul se salveaza in cache.
In cazul in care dorim sa definim un provider propiu pentru output cache este nevoie sa scriem o clasa ce sa mosteneasca din OutputCacheProvider.
    public abstract class OutputCacheProvider : ProviderBase
{
public abstract object Get(string key);
public abstract object Add(string key, object entry, DateTime utcExpiry);
public abstract void Set(string key, object entry, DateTime utcExpiry);
public abstract void Remove(string key);
}
Prin intermediul metodelor care ne sunt puse la dispozitie, putem sa controlam provider-ul in totalitate.
In web.config este este nevoie sa specificam ce fel de output cache sa se foloseasca:
<caching>
<outputCache defaultProvider="NameOutPutCache">
<providers>
<add name="NameOutPutCache"
type="FullLocationOfOutputCacheImplementation" />
</providers>
</outputCache>
</caching>

Mai jos puteti sa gasiti un exemplu de outputcach provider pentru MongoDb:
 public class MongoDbOutputCacheProvider : OutputCacheProvider, IDisposable
{
readonly Mongo _mongo;
readonly IMongoCollection<CacheItem> _cacheItems;

public MongoDbOutputCacheProvider()
{
// Initializare coneciune la MongoDb
_mongo = new Mongo();
_mongo.Connect();

var store = _mongo.GetDatabase("OutputCacheProviderDB");
_cacheItems = store.GetCollection<CacheItem>();
}

public override object Get(string key)
{
// Se cauta elementul cu cheia dorita.
var cacheItem = _cacheItems.FindOne(new { _id = key });

//Se deserializeaza elementul gasit.
if (cacheItem != null) {
if (cacheItem.Expiration.ToUniversalTime() <= DateTime.UtcNow) {
_cacheItems.Remove(cacheItem);
} else {
return Deserialize(cacheItem.Item);
}
}

return null;
}

public override object Add(string key, object entry, DateTime utcExpiry)
{

if (utcExpiry == DateTime.MaxValue)
{
utcExpiry = DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(5);
}

// Se adauga elementul in baza de date.
_cacheItems.Insert(new CacheItem
{
Id = key,
Item = Serialize(entry),
Expiration = utcExpiry
});

return entry;
}

public override void Set(string key, object entry, DateTime utcExpiry)
{
var item = _cacheItems.FindOne(new { _id = key });

if (item != null)
{
// In cazul in care elementul deja exista se face update la informatii.
item.Item = Serialize(entry);
item.Expiration = utcExpiry;
_cacheItems.Save(item);
}
else
{
// Se insereaza un element nou.
_cacheItems.Insert(new CacheItem
{
Id = key,
Item = Serialize(entry),
Expiration = utcExpiry
});
}
}

public override void Remove(string key)
{
// Se elimina din MongoDb.
_cacheItems.Remove(new { _id = key });
}

private static byte[] Serialize(object entry)
{
var formatter = new BinaryFormatter();
var stream = new MemoryStream();
formatter.Serialize(stream, entry);

return stream.ToArray();
}

private static object Deserialize(byte[] serializedEntry)
{
var formatter = new BinaryFormatter();
var stream = new MemoryStream(serializedEntry);

return formatter.Deserialize(stream);
}

public void Dispose()
{
_mongo.Disconnect();
_mongo.Dispose();
}
}

Why Database Modernization Matters for AI

  When companies transition to the cloud, they typically begin with applications and virtual machines, which is often the easier part of the process. The actual complexity arises later when databases are moved. To save time and effort, cloud adoption is more of a cloud migration in an IaaS manner, fulfilling current, but not future needs. Even organisations that are already in the cloud find that their databases, although “migrated,” are not genuinely modernised. This disparity becomes particularly evident when they begin to explore AI technologies. Understanding Modernisation Beyond Migration Database modernisation is distinct from merely relocating an outdated database to Azure. It's about making your data layer ready for future needs, like automation, real-time analytics, and AI capabilities. AI needs high throughput, which can be achieved using native DB cloud capabilities. When your database runs in a traditional setup (even hosted in the cloud), in that case, you will enc...

How to audit an Azure Cosmos DB

In this post, we will talk about how we can audit an Azure Cosmos DB database. Before jumping into the problem let us define the business requirement: As an Administrator I want to be able to audit all changes that were done to specific collection inside my Azure Cosmos DB. The requirement is simple, but can be a little tricky to implement fully. First of all when you are using Azure Cosmos DB or any other storage solution there are 99% odds that you’ll have more than one system that writes data to it. This means that you have or not have control on the systems that are doing any create/update/delete operations. Solution 1: Diagnostic Logs Cosmos DB allows us activate diagnostics logs and stream the output a storage account for achieving to other systems like Event Hub or Log Analytics. This would allow us to have information related to who, when, what, response code and how the access operation to our Cosmos DB was done. Beside this there is a field that specifies what was th...
