Best way to cache data in .NET

I am in the process of figuring out a cache strategy for our current setup, currently have multiple web servers and wanted to know what is the best way to cache data in this environment. I have done research about MemCache and the native asp.net caching but wanted to get some feedback first. Should I go with a Linux box if I use MemCache or a win32 port of MemCache. Thanks!

  • What about checking out Microsoft Velocity (http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/velocity)? Another option if you don't want to start using Microsoft CTP-ware is to check out Nache which allows distributed cache/session state management (http://www.alachisoft.com/ncache/)

    worked awesome for me and have heard nothing but goodness about it

  • Dare Obasanjo has a pretty good blog post about this topic. You really need to assess what it is you're caching, why you're caching it and what your needs are before you can make a decision on a caching strategy.
