Question
I want to use EntityFramework.Cache for one of my tables, but I can not find any information about how does it work with live data and relationships?
I want to know if I add some data to my table or the relation tables does it understand it and re-cache table again or the result could be stale?
Does anyone work with any Entity Framework second level cache?
Accepted Answer
A cache normally caches entities (Detached from the context) and re-uses the same result as long as the cache is not expired.
If you change the query, a new result is cached (even if it returns the same entity key) since relations could have been changed.
Here is an alternative to the cache you are currently using:

EF+ Query Cache allows to cache query with tag, expiration and cache control.
