Using new Windows Azure Cache, you can easily deploy dedicated, high-performance, distributed caches that you can use with your Windows Azure applications to store data in memory and dramatically improve scalability and performance. You can use a dedicated instance of the Windows Azure Cache Service for each of your apps or share a single cache across multiple apps. This latter scenario is particularly useful when you wish to partition your cloud back-end solutions into multiple deployment units; now they can all easily share and work with the same cached data.
