AspNetCore.Session.NCache

NCache Session Provider for ASP.NET Core applications. This package lets you offload ASP.NET Core session state storage to NCache, giving you a fast, distributed, and highly available alternative to in-memory or SQL Server-backed session stores — enabling your application to scale out across multiple web servers while keeping session data consistent.

Installation

Install-Package AspNetCore.Session.NCache

or, using the .NET CLI:

dotnet add package AspNetCore.Session.NCache

What is Installed

Installing this package adds the following NCache configuration files to your project:

  • client.ncconf — Defines the cache client settings, including the cache name and the list of server nodes the client connects to.
  • config.ncconf — Contains the cache configuration (cache topology, partitions, eviction policy, etc.) used when the cache is created/registered.
  • tls.ncconf — Contains TLS/SSL settings used to secure communication between the client and the NCache cluster, if enabled.

Prerequisites

  • .NET 6.0+ Application.
  • NCache SDK 5.3.7.1 or later.
  • An NCache 5.3.7 (or later) server should be up and running, with the target cache already created/registered on it.

Getting Started

Setting up NCache

Before running your application (if NCache is not installed on the current machine), you need to update client.ncconf so the client knows which cache to connect to and where to find it:

  1. Open client.ncconf.
  2. Locate the cache entry named myCache and rename it to the name of your actual cache (the cache you created/registered on the NCache server).
  3. Under the server settings, update the server address to point to one of the nodes in the cluster where that cache is running.

Example:

<cache id="myCache" ... >
  <server name="10.0.0.1" ... />
</cache>

Change myCache → YourCacheName, and 10.0.0.1 → the IP/hostname of a node hosting YourCacheName.

Setting up Package

Sessions can be initialized by the AddNCacheSession extension method in your Program.cs file as shown below:

var options = builder.Configuration.GetSection("NCacheSettings"); // fetch options from appsettings.json

builder.Services.AddNCacheSession(options) // Add NCache Session with given settings

app.UseNCacheSession(); // Ensure NCache session is used

Configuration

ASP.NET Core (appsettings.json):

{
  "NCacheSettings": {
    "SessionAppId": "demoApp",
    "SessionOptions": {
      "CookieName": "AspNetCore.Session",
      "CookieDomain": null,
      "CookiePath": "/",
      "CookieHttpOnly": "True",
      "IdleTimeout": "5",
      "CookieSecure": "None"
    },

    "CacheName": "demoCache",
    "EnableLogs": "True",
    "RequestTimeout": "90"
  },
}

Adjust cache name and other settings as needed for your environment.
