A Professional ASP.NET Core API - Caching
Caching is a technique of storing the frequently accessed/used data so that the future requests for those sets of data can be served much faster to the client.
In other terms, you take the most frequently used data, which is also least-modified, and copy it temporary storage so that it can be accessed much faster for the future calls from the client. This awesome technique can boost the performance of your application drastically by removing unnecessary and frequent requests to the data source.
It is important to note that applications should be designed in a way that they never depend directly on the cached memory. The Application should use the cache data only if it is available. If the cache data has expired or not available, the application would ideally request the original data source.
