I missed ASP.NET Connections this week, but I have been slowly getting back into my speaking and training schedule. I have two INETA engagements coming up in the next couple months:

28 April 2005
.NET Developers Group in Central Ohio
Topic: Caching Best Practices in ASP.NET
6pm at Microsoft Polaris Building

12 May 2005
Greater Charleston .NET User GroupTopic: Caching Best Practices in ASP.NET
6pm at Blackbaud

For both of these topics I intend to discuss:

• Caching Pattern — the right way check the cache for a value, and if necessary, repopulate it (article)
• Cache Management / Configuration Best Practices
• Micro Caching (benefits of caching for short periods of time) (article)
• Write Caching (or Batch Updating) (article pending)
• Whidbey Caching Features (based on latest build available)
