Omniscient's Foundation - Blog

Hi everyone!

This is my first blog. I hope the following information will help someone like me. I searched the web and navigate through the people's blogs to find my answers in this new world of caching with AppFabric Velocity!

My first post will concern the AppFabric API.
Why Microsoft don't think to have one centralized API to manage the AppFabric velocity cache? Why should we use the PowerShell command to create named cache ?
Why can we not create region with the Poweshell command ?
What is the benefit to split the cache management between Powershell commands (that we certainly needs to wrap up) and an API that gives us only a part of the potential of the AppFabric cache management ?

How deep the rabbit hole goes ?

What distinguish the line between PowerShell command and the AppFabric API ?? Is it possible to get a complete API to manage the AppFabric cache server ? (configuration, management of named caches and regions)

Enough complain, I will come back later with my own solution to solve issues related to server cache physical structure and how I minimized the use of the Powershell command that is sooooo time expensive and time consuming...
