Synopsis: Need a .Net cache solution in which the cache can be
synchronized across multiple hosts on our server farm.

My company is investigating caching as a means to improve performance,
by reducing the database as a bottleneck. However due to constraints
imposed by our integration with business partners, we need a solution
that does not have a single point of failure. In a nutshell:

So far we have found a few vendors that offer solutions:
GemStone's Gemfire
Alachisoft's NCache
Tangosol's Coherence
ScaleOut's StateServer
Gigaspaces XAP
However we cannot find reliable (i.e. not PR driven) performance
metrics and/or comparisons for these technologies. Does anyone have
experience with any of these products, or know of alternative
products, or means of achieving our goal?

Thank you,
Adigun Palmer

If your company is big enough, you might want to go after an unlocked demo
for evaluation purposes. I wouldn't go by any of that performance feedback
especially if the application is mission critical.
