Service results caching. When you enable services to cache results, Integration Server saves the service invocation results in the cache for a specified period of time. While the results are in cache, rather than re-invoking the service, Integration Server can quickly retrieve the service results for subsequent clients' requests for the service. For more information about service caching, see Caching Service Results.

Data caching. With Ehcache, you can define individual caches in which services can cache data. Services that want to cache data do so using the caching services provided in the pub.cache folder. Ehcache enables you to cache virtually any kind of object. Additionally, it provides advanced features such as off-heap caching and distributed caching. For more information about using Ehcache, see Configuring Ehcache on Integration Server .
