Does ODR employ any caching capabilities?

Yes. Caching in ODR can be enabled by using the check box in the ODR properties.
ODR caching uses Dynacache, and caches by default are independent of other ODRs. In
order to share cache between ODRs, use distributed cache, by creating new replication
domain. The ODR caches according to the HTTP 1.1 specification (RFC 2616) i.e.
following
– If a response comes back with the appropriate cache-control and
expiration headers set, the page will be cached
– WebSphere Application Server automatically sets these headers
appropriately for static content deployed in a WAR file
– Regular dynamic content (JSP or servlet output) is not cached in the
ODR; instead use dynacache for these pages.

Hi Nitin,

Can you please help me find out the location where ODR caches contents?

I have just updated a .txt file in application deployed on dynamic cluster but I dont see updated file when I hit the URL in browser.

I can see logs in cache.log when I hit the URL it means the file is comming from ODR's cache.

Thanks,
