Topics
"Caching In" on CF Performance
Whether you think you have a performance problem or not, you ought to
understand the many ways of benefiting from caching in a CF web app. And
they go way beyond the common solutions of query caching, template caching,
and page caching. Whether you know what those mean or not, come learn about
more than a dozen ways to leverage, control, and monitor caching in CF.
You may know about (or at least have heard of) query caching
(CachedWithin/CachedAfter) and template and trusted caching (in the Admin),
as well as shared scope caching, or perhaps you've tried CFCACHE or
CFSaveContent, and others. In broad terms, a cache is a way to reuse
something that's expensive to obtain the first time.
But did you know that there are more than a dozen ways to do and control
caching in CF apps and related operations, some set or controlled in code,
others in the Admin? And have you really understood any features you have
used? There are often conflicting recommendations offered, and it's easy to
make a mistake and find a change makes things worse. You may also find that
some things don't work as expected. There are also aspects of caching
outside of CF (database, web server, and browser) that you should keep in
mind.
Whether you're a relatively new or even an experienced CF developer or
administrator, come join veteran CF developer and frequent speaker Charlie
Arehart as he tours you through the world of improving performance in your
web applications by way of caching. He'll review each of the options,
providing info on making choices as well as how to solve problems when
things don't go as expected. He'll also show options to monitor caching
choices, both in and outside of CF. Whether you're interest is CF7, Scorpio,
or even CF 5, Charlie's confident that everyone will learn at least
something new.
