Enumeration ECacheMode

Enum to describe the different cache modes.

Enumeration Members

NEXT_CALL: "next-call"

Cache Mode: NEXT_CALL

Pro(s):

The OpenAPI will always be up-to-date. Each new service detection prompts a clear cache, not renewal though.

Con(s):

REFRESH: "refresh"

Cache Mode: REFRESH

Pro(s):

Provides faster response on the first call because cache regenerates whenever a new service is detected.

Con(s):

More CPU usage, often significantly, if aliases/services are refreshed frequently.

TIMEOUT: "timeout"

Cache Mode: TIMEOUT

Pro(s):

Designed mindful of CPU usage, it only clears cache on timeouts (default 10 mins).

Con(s):

Not ideal for dynamic servers due to its completely time-based cache clearing policy.
The OpenAPI might not be up-to-date all the time.
