Deploy and Configure Azure Cache for Redis
Question
Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario.
Each question in the series contains a unique solution.
Determine whether the solution meets the stated goals.
You are developing and deploying several ASP.NET web applications to Azure App Service.
You plan to save session state information and HTML output.
You must use a storage mechanism with the following requirements: -> Share session state across all ASP.NET web applications.
-> Support controlled, concurrent access to the same session state data for multiple readers and a single writer.
-> Save full HTTP responses for concurrent requests.
You need to store the information.
Proposed Solution: Deploy and configure Azure Cache for Redis.
Update the web applications.
Does the solution meet the goal?

A. B.A.
The session state provider for Azure Cache for Redis enables you to share session information between different instances of an ASP.NET web application.
The same connection can be used by multiple concurrent threads.
Redis supports both read and write operations.
The output cache provider for Azure Cache for Redis enables you to save the HTTP responses generated by an ASP.NET web application.
Note: Using the Azure portal, you can also configure the eviction policy of the cache, and control access to the cache by adding users to the roles provided.
These roles, which define the operations that members can perform, include Owner, Contributor, and Reader.
For example, members of the Owner role have complete control over the cache (including security) and its contents, members of the Contributor role can read and write information in the cache, and members of the Reader role can only retrieve data from the cache.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/best-practices/cachingYes, the proposed solution of deploying and configuring Azure Cache for Redis meets the stated goals of the scenario.
Azure Cache for Redis is an in-memory data store that provides fast access to data. It is commonly used to improve the performance of web applications by caching frequently accessed data. In this scenario, it can be used to store session state information and HTML output for the ASP.NET web applications.
Azure Cache for Redis meets the requirements of sharing session state across all ASP.NET web applications and supporting controlled, concurrent access to the same session state data for multiple readers and a single writer. This is because it provides a distributed cache that can be accessed by multiple web applications simultaneously. It also supports concurrency control through a locking mechanism that allows multiple readers to access the cache while preventing simultaneous writes.
Azure Cache for Redis also meets the requirement of saving full HTTP responses for concurrent requests. This is because it can store any type of data, including HTML output from the web applications.
In conclusion, the proposed solution of deploying and configuring Azure Cache for Redis meets all the requirements of the scenario and is an appropriate choice for storing session state information and HTML output for the ASP.NET web applications. Therefore, the answer is A. Yes.
