Distributed Caching

Some optional features rely on ASP.NET Core distributed caching:

  • State data formatter for OpenID Connect
  • Replay cache (e.g. for JWT client credentials)
  • Device flow throttling service
  • Authorization parameter store

In order to work in a multi server environment, this needs to be set up correctly. Please consult the Microsoft documentation for more details.
