Does iControl have cache
hello,team
does iControl have cache?
such as ,client call api1 ,which get result 1
after 2 seconds,client call api1 again,F5 respond with 1 which is stored in F5 memory or cache?
The iControl server side code was implemented to only update the running configuration in memory. Unlike the GUI, which does a disk flush each operation, we found that the overhead of doing that for large configurations was too long and effected API based applications negatively. The best practice is to make the various changes you want and then issue a System.ConfigSync.save_configuration() method to flush it to disk.
