Enabling WebSphere Commerce data cache
Data that is cached by the WebSphere Commerce data cache can be configured by using either the command caching or DistributedMap objects configuration methods. For the best performance, use DistributedMap object cache configuration. Command caching configuration is provided for compatibility with earlier versions only.
If you use command caching, you can choose which data to cache. You can fine-tune the configuration by changing the <cache-entry> element attributes, such as <priority>, <timeout>, and <inactivity>. For more information, see cachespec.xml.
The WebSphere Commerce data cache can be configured to use DistributedMap object caches, by defining specially named object caches in the cacheinstances.properties file.
Some DistributedMap object caches are defined automatically during feature pack installation. To view these object caches, open the WebSphere Application Server Integrated Solutions Console, and on the left menu, click
