WebSphere sMash now supports Alternative PHP Cache functions

Posted by hayton on January 15th, 2010. Other posts by hayton

We have added support for the main APC extensions into sMash in the latest driver. These are good for caching data (oddly enough) which can be seen by all requests running in a single engine. We are using an internal storage format which for multiple reader situations is faster than deserialization. Some applications like SugarCRM pick up on this support and use it automatically. The cache is lost if the engine recycles so its not long term persistent storage, consider session, database or global context for that. We don’t support the compilation related functions since compilation already done outside of sMash’s APC implementation.
