Microsoft Project - Velocity
Microsoft have announce details of project "Velocity", a distributed caching mechanism for .NET. The Velocity team describe it as:
"Velocity is intended to provide distributed caching (in memory) for all .NET applications – from enterprise scale to web-scale. We believe that there are many applications that need a distributed caching mechanism, and that there is, therefore, a need for distributed caching as a core part of the .NET platform. We expect to have more integrated support for this functionality with other parts of the .NET platform in our upcoming releases."
